Honoring Our Heritage: 41 Old Road

WestportNow.com Image
Robin Kallman-Hoving and her family are honoring Westport’s heritage by displaying a Westport Historical Society plaque identifying their home at 41 Old Road as the Backiel House, built in 1910 by John S. Backiel. The Kallman-Hoving family purchased the house in 2006 and received a Westport Historic District Commission Preservation Award in 2009.  “In a neighborhood that has seen a number of demolitions of older homes, the Backiel House now serves as an example of how an older house can regain its charm by returning the architecture to its beginnings,” the commission said in its commendation.

Comings and Goings: Westport Florist Moves to 580 Riverside

WestportNow.com Image
Westport Florist, formerly located at 553 Riverside Ave., has moved across the street to its new location at 580 Riverside Ave.  Paul Hefferan, co-owner with his wife Sheila, said they intend to remain there for an indefinite period of time, but at least a year.  Heffernan and his wife acquired the business from the Gilberties in 1989 when it was located behind the old John’s Best Pizza on Post Road West. Then in August 2001 the business moved to a building across the street which was demolished last week as part of the Saugatuck Center development. (See WestportNow, April 30, 2010).
