An application is in process to acquire a permit to demolish the house at 16 Evergreen Parkway near Westport’s center. Built in 1945, the 1-1/4 story Cape has 1,104 square feet and is situated on a .32-acre property. Because it was built more than 50 years ago, the application will be reviewed by the Historic District Commission. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com

Those of us in real estate have noticed the market picking up significantly since earlier this year. Based on the number of “Teardowns of the Day” in the past few weeks, looks like the builders are taking notice as well. Although I don’t like seeing older homes knocked down (I own a 1927 colonial) this is considered a positive sign and important for a healthy recovery in the housing market.
Sad that these small quaiont homes are being removed for larger oversized houses. But you can’t stop progress or greed.
It would be very interesting to see before and afters from the same viewpoint.
Too bad economic recovery comes at a cost of charming, older homes, Mr. Kinyon
But they don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
and this particular street is so attractive, in part, because of the # of well proportioned, balanced, older houses like this one. This one looks like it does need some TLC but I’m sorry that it is not just a target to for a rehab vs. demo.
