White house

This iconic home was built by the Galt family (Galt Ocean Mile) in 1936. It sold for $24.5 million in 2019 and will soon be history--to be replaced by one of those square boxes. If you hurry, you can go claim some items from the interior this week. This is an old photo, so not the best.

What did you claim? It is nice architecture the way it is,

Wow! Great real estate commission I guess! Location, location, location! 💰

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

[Mags]

What a beautiful home!

[Islandgirl]

Neat architecture!

The house has neat lines.

@hjbenson it has much more character than what will replace it. I’ll have to think about going to see it.

Beautiful house. It's a shame that they are going to tear it down and replace it with one of those box structures. Just no appeal to those at all.

@rickster549 I see character built over the decades being replaced with one boring style

[Diana]

so sad really, what a beautiful home this is. Not a nice thought of people running all over and grabbing items from it.

[Danette Thompson]

@ludwigsdiana they are actually auctioning off all the items

I'm such a sentimentalist, it's heartbreaking to see beautiful old places demolished! We were only chatting about that this afternoon...how the Royal Hawaiian was to be torn down but was named a place in the Nat'l Historic Registry before they did so! I could go on...had a wonderful evening with the grandsons!

@Weezilou I don't know who started the square box architectural trend, but I don't think people will look back in future years and think it was a good idea!

[Olwynne]

Wow. That's beautiful. Such a shame it's going to be ddestroyed

Interesting
