Way off course, IMHO. But the Stewart's expansion is not the problem. These are neither historic buildings nor are they important to the affordable housing question. BnBs, vacant buildings, and public goodies given to "low income housing" developers who are not low income housing developers == that's where you need to focus your attentions.

Now there is an emphasis on affordable housing, which is good. So why tear down old and affordable housing on Green Street to enlarge Stewart's? It makes no sense whatsoever. Hudson surges forward in eliminating the past.

But for many of us, Hy Miller's store (Sam's son) was not an eyesore to the hundreds of families that once occupied the streets. It was more about the loving spirit of the people and less about the building back in the 60's and forward. I loved Hy, and as far as nostalgia for that building, that people now see as an eyesore, my mother's last conscious breath was inside that store. There much more to the history of any building, no matter whom the next owners happen to be or what it looks like from century to forward through the decades and ever forward until all is destroyed once again. Appreciate the history along with the bricks and sidewalks. ~ Frances Drabickdowneastxghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10102617515826091565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-84124126159835908762018-08-02T17:06:51.067-04:002018-08-02T17:06:51.067-04:00Anyone care to explain ...

That's another example of crappy 50's architecture that would be improved with an additional story.peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15516536444700341403noreply@blogger.com
