Curious Development

The work began yesterday afternoon. By this morning, the first level of the portico at 345 Allen Street was entirely enclosed.

The purpose of the enclosure is unknown. No projects involving this house have come before the Historic Preservation Commission. Needless to say, it is impossible for even the most casual and disinterested passerby not to notice this and wonder what on earth is going on.
