Going Down: 4 Cob Drive

The house at Westport’s 4 Cob Drive, off Punch Bowl Drive near Cross Highway, was demolished Thursday. Built in 1960, the two-story colonial had 3,624 square feet, was situated on a 1.69-acre property and was purchased last month by a neighbor for $1.3 million. The new owner said that instead of having a new house constructed,  the site will be converted into a small park. In recent weeks Westport firefighters conducted training exercises on the house. It was the WestportNow Teardown of the Day on June 25, 2011. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
