Plenty of Demolition Permits on Monday's Preservation Board Agenda (Updated)

UPDATED: The Preservation Board of the City of St. Louis has published the final agenda for its meeting on Monday.

Among the controversial items are the following appeals of staff denials:

- Demolition permit for a house at 4320 Arco Avenue in the Forest Park Southeast Historic District

- Demolition of houses at 1120, 1124 and 1400 Newhouse in the Hyde Park Historic District

- Demolition of the Blairmont-owned building at 1629 N. 19th Street in the Clemens House/Columbia Brewery National Register District

- Replacement of the historic windows of the house at 59 Kingsbury Place in the Central West End Historic District (the owner has replaced -- without a permit -- the windows on the Colonial Revival home with Prairie School style windows)

The meeting takes place Monday, May 21, at 4:00 p.m. in the 12th floor conference room at 1015 Locust Street.

The amazing thing is that the Kingsbury home is owned by the Engineering Dean at WU - apparently she's not interested in architecture in the least.
