Wish they’d come just a *little bit* farther west, and demolish the 4 houses that have been “marked” for demolition, for months now, at the southern corner of Bell & Nagle!
What are they going to build along Clay? Would be a great spot along the new bike trail with the right kind of development.
Sad to see the house in the photo go. That is a fantastic looking house from c. 1925 in Winlow Place in Montrose. What a shame — get ready for turrets and stucco.
Echoing Cap’n on this one. Another beauty bites the dust.
I used to know a queen who lived there years ago (on Marshall). It’s a beautiful house. It’s these stories that make me hate living here.
Those Clay St. properties are old 1930s-era row houses, most owned by the same LLC for the past 12 years, and if you dig into the LLC, you see it’s a one-person outfit. Someone’s cashing in on what must have seemed an awfully risky investment at the time.
The house at Marshall and Woodhead is not being demolished. The new owners are demolishing the garage, and renovating the house.
The Clay street homes are about a block from the location of the new rail line that just broke ground this week.
