I also dislike seeing an old historic home get demolished, but it's an unfortunate reality that the kind of the people with the money to buy and upkeep a big grand old Victorian in town aren't the kind of people who wanna live at the corner of two major road ways between across the street from a hospital and a half mile away from a bunch of partying college housing.

The people with that kind of money go buy some river front acreage south of town and build a McMansion.

​

And a house nobody wants to live in, especially old ones, well what else is gonna happen?
