Demolitions Appear to be Decreasing in Scarsdale

157BrewsterConstructionThe recent slowdown in sales of high end homes may finally be effecting local developers. This month, for the first time in many months, the agenda for the Board of Architectural Review includes applications for additions, a portico, retaining walls and a patio – but has no applications for new homes for consideration at the June 20 meeting. Furthermore, the monthly meeting of the Committee for Historic Preservation – which usually includes four or five homes to be cleared for demolition – has been cancelled this month. Could this mean that developers have lost their zeal, at least temporarily, for teardowns and new construction? What's going on in your neighborhood? Send us your comments in the section below.
