Item Title:
DEMOLITION 149 ALLEN STREET
Item Detail:
17. COMMUNICATION/DEMOLITION, New Bedford Historical Commission, to City Council, re: BUILDING DEMOLITION REVIEW OF 149 ALLEN STREET, (MAP 41, LOT 147), a late 19th century wood-framed barn/garage structure – advising that “the property is not located in a National Register Historic District; the barn/garage is in poor condition due to extensive deferred maintenance. Restoration or preservation efforts would be impractical due to the existing condition of the structure; “in light of these findings, the Preservation Planner has determined that the barn/structure at 149 Allen Street is neither a Historically Significant nor a Preferably Preserved structure.” The Council may wish to note that the owner additionally intends to demolish a small wood-framed addition from 1942 at the rear of the main structure on this lot. Because that building addition is not seventy-five (75) years old, it is not subject to the Demolition Delay Ordinance and is therefore not included in this determination.
