If only the Fedders Houses and Post Fires were getting swallowed up at the same rate of these early 1900s townhouses
Agreed, it’s a beautiful little charmer. In any other context I’d be rooting for its saving, but this is the tradition in the S and W Bronx. Had the Bronx never taken the postwar downturn it did it probably would have been replaced with a large apartment house decades ago.
The replacement better make its loss worthwhile. Not hiring one of the Badaly or Caliendo goons is a good sign, though this architect has very little examples of previous work.
The last house on the block bites the dust!
