Great Grandma’s Old Flat

To je zgodba o 1942-44 Hebert Street, which is in the Old North St. Louis soseski St. Louis, MO. Like its neighbors, Ta struktura je videl boljše dni. Sem se začel zanimati za zgradbe, ker moja prababica je živel na tem naslovu v 1930.

Družina mojega dedka po materini strani je živel v severnem delu St. Louis v otroštvu od 1915 na začetku leta 1930. Bil je lastnik doma na Dryden Avenue leta 1950, which is in better condition than this building. Bil je nostalgično govori o odraščanju v Walnut Park in živi s svojo strici Jules. Na žalost, Stric Jules’ hiša na oprh Avenue je zdaj prazna veliko.

Zgornja slika je 1942-44 Hebert Street danes. Builders completed the flat in 1882 making the dwelling 131 stara leta. To je dokaz, da standardi konstrukcije v trenutku, ko se njegova streha skoraj popolnoma izginila, celoten zadnji del stavbe se je zrušil na dvorišču, opeka manjkajo nekateri od sten in se zdi, da so v zgornjih nadstropjih lahko propadel zaradi dežja prihaja skozi streho. Še, Stavba še stoji.

A “Prodamo Prijava” je viden na 1944 entry board but it is old. Land Revitalizacija organ, St. Louis Mesto lastnik prestopnik nepremičnine, prevzel premoženja v 1996. Po mestnih zapisov, To je bila prazna od leta vsaj 1995. The city condemned the building in January 2013, which means a date with the wrecking ball is on tap within the next few months. Mesto bo podrla 1942-44 Hebert Street z nary jokom. Neighbors will celebrate that they do not have to live with the eye sore anymore. Old North St. Louis je bil doživlja revitalizacijo. Residents are saving the buildings. Če 1942-44 Hebert Street could have still been intact a little longer, rehabbers could have saved the building.

Na žalost, kratkovidno urbanisti mislil, da bi bilo super ideja, da se starejši stanovanjski sklad v odseku severno od mesta gnilobe. The city could demolish the old housing and replace it with newer housing. Builders constructed south side buildings over a series of caves, so the sinkholes in the area made it difficult to build. Severna stran zgrajena prej, Tako stavbe običajno starejše.

Seveda, the housing stock was older, but city planners gave little thought to its place in the history of the city or the superior construction of the time. 1942-44 Hebert Street je vneto oko, zdaj pa v 1930 to je raj za vdovo z mladega sina, ki je želel biti bližje svoji družini. Vse preveč seznanjeni zgodba o žalostni konec nekoč ponosne strukture na severni strani.
