[Leica] Don's PAW 23 Demolition in the neighborhood

[r.s.taylor at comcast.net (Richard S. Taylor)]

This is very common in Boston's western suburbs now, too (and 
probably in any town within easy commuting distance of downtown). 
Any small house in Lexington, Bedford or Concord, to name just three 
of the nearby towns, is ripe for destruction and replacement by a 
house two to three times its size.  We lost another one just up the 
street two weeks ago.  Progress.  ;-)
