The City plans to demolish this former home, next to Nathan Hale Middle School.
NORWALK, Conn. An unusual hearing ended Wednesday with a unanimous Board of Condemnation vote to demolish 162 Strawberry Hill Ave., deemed unsafe due to a fire. The house is located near Nathan Hale Middle School.
“It’s come to our attention and concern about the structural stability of the building,” Chief Building Officer William Ireland said. “Since we have an adjacent school and tennis courts, and we are in fear of collapse really structurally because of the weight of snow. There’s also some health and fire issues there. And of course, like you just mentioned the significant fire damage over the past year.”
