Opposed to 74 Revere Street development

I am writing to oppose the A-26-36 submitted to the zoning board by Basilio DiFlumeri in regards to the property at 74 Revere Street. This house was purchased by my great grandparents in 1900. It is where my grandparents also lived and raised my mom and her siblings. It was the place where all the cousins would get together. So, yes I have a strong attachment to this home. With that said, the new owner wants to get a permit to build a 10-unit, 4 story apartment building on that lot. If he gets that permit, his next step would be to apply for a permit to demolish this beautiful, 126-year-old Queen Anne Victorian home.
