Daily Dose of Blairmont 56

• 2515 Coleman Street (VHS Partners LLC, September 2003)

February 2008

Blairmont, apparently, has had a loooooong time to sit on this one.



It's a complete ruin, and has been so for quite a while. It's hard to tell if it was brick rustled, or if it just fell apart. (Both are common fates for Blairmont properties.)

Not to worry, not to worry! Blairmont owns the house on the right. The house on the left, with the fancy round window, is owned by the city through its Land Reutilization Authority. It is perfectly safe from being destroyed by neglect and then handed over to a private developer once it's gone! That could not possibly happen.



Therefore, there is no possibility of beautiful masonry work being destroyed and lost forever. NONE.

ALL IS WELL.

And if you believe that, I need to talk to you about this bridge I own.
