Preservation Award Winner: 7 Washington Ave.

The Westport Historic District Commission will honor Annette Coplit of 7 Washington Ave. with the Helen Muller Award which is a special award reserved “for those living in a local historic district.” This award will be presented at a Town Hall ceremony Saturday, Sept. 8 “in recognition of the thoughtful improvements to this handsome arts and crafts bungalow c. 1900.” The award is particularly noteworthy as it is the first to a resident in the Gorham Avenue Historic District. The commission is honoring owners of nine Westport properties for their work in rehabilitating, adapting, or preserving structures. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
