Week #30 of our series brings 4 more examples of a variety of architectural styles that have met the wrecking ball — and the style that supplants them.
“Then & Now” curator and pre-demolition archivist Dave Matlow provides these images. They’re part of a project he worked on from 2004 to 2020.
A reminder: This is a community blog. Our neighbors live here. Some built those new structures; others are the second (or beyond) owners.
If you comment, please be kind. Taste is subjective. Wherever we live, everyone has loves their home.

more restrained and tasteful “improvements” than in most week’s then & now. how much did the new owners on Wake Robin pay for the snow removal and improved weather?
I recognize the Valley Road home having grown up just down the street from it. The new build is a nice fit for the space, well done.
