Garage demolition at 714 Willard

Kalamazoo

Description

Demolition of an adjoining garage that's twisting and pulling away from a 1895 house. Staff found the garage was built later, isn't character-defining, and poses a safety danger.

Impact summary

Removes a structurally failing outbuilding; the homeowner must return to the commission for approval of any new work on the site, and Community Homeworks will address issues on the north side of the property.
