Item Title: DEMOLITION - 248 PURCHASE STREET
Item Detail: 11. COMMUNICATION/DEMOLITION, Anne Louro, Preservation Planner and Secretary to the Historical Commission, to City Council, re: BUILDING DEMOLITION REVIEW of 248 PURCHASE STREET, (MAP 37/LOT 168), a Circa 1881 One-Story Wood Framed Storefront, advising that “the structure is not located in a National Register Historic District; the structure has historic significance due to its association with the growth of neighborhoods in response to the burgeoning textile industry in the late 19th century; the structure is in poor condition due to extensive deferred maintenance and there is no practical end-use for the building due to its location; 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 structure at 248 Purchase Street is neither a Historically Significant nor a Preferably Preserved Structure.”
