Wrecking Ball: 27 Gorham Avenue, 1933
27 Gorham Avenue - and its crescent moon shutters, stone fireplace, and sloping roof - is slated for demolition, according to a November application. The home was built in 1933 and sits on .46 acres. The property was transferred in November to the Estate of John Geroski, who owned the home until his death in October at the age of 97.
Due to its historic stature, Historic District Commission members voted on December 8th to uphold the 180 day delay of demolition from it’s November 20th application date, allowing more time for public inspection. Members cited the character of the home within the district, its current condition, and wanting to assure all other options were explored prior to demolishing the home.
