Many months ago I heard rumors that what is commonly known as the Capt Willis House, one of the sentries guarding the portal to the Neck, was being demolished. Dumpsters arrived, some activity took place, then attention was focused on the building of a structure in its side yard. It seemed to be a garage, then very non-garage windows were added and I figured it would all become clear in due time.
Then I was asked if the application for demolition of a house and construction of an accessory building was this parcel. Being my mother’s daughter I have a set of little plat maps on my desk and was able to confirm it, in fact, was.
