  1. First of all…what is wrong with the realtor who shows a 210 year old home to a tear-down looker?  They should know better. This is deplorable and despicable. This town should have more backbone to prevent these kinds of tear downs from occuring before we don’t have anything left but McMansions and pre-fabs!

  2. What happened to the historic value of this house?  I thought the demolition had been put off?  WOW what a surprise.  I thought this house was safe.  I guess nothing is safe.
