A Reprieve for an Old House

In November 2017, Gossips reported that the owner of 418 State Street intended to demolish the house and construct a new house in its place. The house is not located in a historic district, so only a demolition permit was needed to raze it. Because the new house was not to be built on the footprint of the existing house, area variances were required for the construction of the new house. Those variances were granted by the ZBA (Zoning Board of Appeals) in January 2018.

Five months later, it appears there has been a change of heart. The house is still standing, and there's a "For Sale" sign on it.
