Another Vintage Home Destroyed

Another old cottage was demolished recently in the "bluff" neighborhood (Summit St.): to be replaced by a multi-story "McMansion" according to a neighbor. An effort was made in about 2001 to find a way to protect vintage homes in the city's older neighborhoods; but it was ultimately defeated by property-rights advocates.

Fairhope's Founders were most concerned about the speculators. Those whose only concern is making money are ruining the old neighborhoods.
