Stop the demolitions in Historic Springfield!
- par: Preservation SOS
- destinataire: City Council, Historic Preservation Commissioners, Mayor
Over 450 homes in this Nationally Recognized Historic District have been demolished since this one square mile was declared "historic."
There are 20 homes (more or less "no offical list exists") that are currently on the Formal Track for demolition. These houses are beyond appeal, policy change or the pleading by the neighborhood. These houses will be added to the 450 homes already forever destroyed.
We demand the respect that our district is entitled to and find the demolitions unacceptable. We ask, beg, plead, to revisit the formal track homes and give them a chance at the upcoming mothballing legislation.
