Historic Home Expansion and Demolition at 1409 Olive Street
Georgetown
Summary
Property owners at 1409 Olive Street want to tear down an unpermitted 1970s addition and a shed to build a new garage and expand the historic 1885 home. The Demolition Subcommittee reviewed the plans and recommended approval, noting the original 1885 structure—once home to Judge Harry N. Graves during the KKK trials—will benefit from removing the failing 1970s structure.
