I affirm my support for the construction of a new, one and one-half story home at 2016 North Van Buren Street. I have no objection to the razing of the current home and a 15’ reduction of the right-of-way on this property to allow a new home to be built in line with the house to the north. I believe a new 2400 sf home built in a style similar to the one depicted here will add value to the neighborhood and enhance the overall beauty of the area.

It will be a great addition to the neighborhood. Carolyn Lindsey is a fantastic architect and know with her talent it's going to be great!

This house completely fits the look and feel of the Heights. I grew up in the Heights and still live in the Heights and this home will actually fit in the neighborhood much better than many of the other new homes that have been built. I think this home will make Van Buren look better than it does right now!

Have lived in the Heights for over 45 years and appreciate the historic architecture. This house is in disrepair and I agree that it should be taken down and replaced with a new house appropriate to the neighborhood.

As Heights residents, we support the plan to raze the current home and build another appropriate to the neighborhood as well as the 15 foot reduction of the right-of-way. Nan Selz and Chris Barrier

As a Heights resident, Heights business owner and as a realtor, I can see absolutely no negatives to a new house on the site!! The plan will enhance the block.

I support the demolition of 2016 N. Van Buren. The house is not in a livable condition and needs to be torn down. My father, Jim Gray, Sr. lived in this house for many years. The new plan is a huge improvement to the neighborhood. Best of luck to the new owners.

I live at 5311 Stonewall Road and walk by this address often. The new home will be an asset to the neighborhood.
