Tomorrow morning, the Historic Preservation Commission will continue its review of the proposal to demolish the structures--a house and two outbuildings--at 309-311 Union Street and use the site for new construction.
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, at 309-311 State Street, something worthy of note is happening. The same person who brought about this remarkable restoration of 307 State Street . . .
is building two houses at 309-311 State Street, a lot that was vacant because the building that stood there was destroyed by fire more than twenty-five years ago. The intent was to re-create the streetscape as it once was. The project was proposed two years ago and is now nearing completion. The outcome is admirable and worthy of celebration. This photograph was taken earlier today.
Great example of a modern build that reflects our historical past.
ReplyDeleteAgree wholeheartedly! …excellent SOP for future renovations/new construction within historic districts.
DeleteI represented the sellers of this property and live less than half a block away. I could not be happier with the nearly-finished results. Congratulations and thanks to the buyers for bringing this to our neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteThank you Victor! So kind
DeleteIt is so heartwarming to see this positive post and comments about our project. My wife and I are grateful for all of the hardworking craftsmen and tradespeople working on the project, and for the tolerance and support from our neighbors during the construction process. We are doing our best to build nice homes that fit the character of Hudson. - Andrew
