Preserving History: Buildings Demolished, Moved and Landmarked

Building Saved by Downzoning

 

In 1977, this 1894 Victorian was moved from 1770 University Avenue to a vacant lot at 2223 Grant Street. The lot became available after the District was downzoned in 1975 and the owners could no longer obtain permission to build a four-unit apartment building to replace the small residence they had torn down.
