seeing how they completely demolish the existing house and rebuild new, is it good for springfield? I can't see them actually renovating an existing historic structure - which is what the houses in springfield need. I not against helping people out, but am tired of watching Jacksonville trade one historic building for one new building time and time again.
yea i don't like this in springfield, unless they are demolishing an srg home. nothing against srg homes, but i'd rather see one of those go before a historic one
Variety is GOOD. It's okay to have some new, modern structures dotted amongst many more old homes. It might inspire the neighbors to fix up and renovate their old and crusty cottages ;)
I will agree that variety is good, but not at the expense of a unique historic home. restoration inspires restoration in historic districts.
Well regardless of what, I would be happy see to exposure to the city of Jacksonville, PERIOD in any way, shape or form.
