Talk:Dr. Hun Houses

demolished . . . delisted
For some reason I can't access the quoted source, but unless somebody broke the law, the houses were presumably delisted, then demolished. Not changing it, though. Awien (talk) 17:38, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The very first page of the source is a letter from the Keeper of the Register telling the state that it was unfortunate that they had been demolished and "accordingly, they have been removed from the Register."

Why ... ?
This is a nice article, but it poses a few questions: why were the buildings listed (finest examples, notable history, etc), why were the buildings demolished after being listed (public hazard, illegal act, etc) and why were they delisted (listed in error, done-deal once they were demolished, etc)? As I'm not familiar with the location, the DYK hook makes the listing/demolition/delisting details the interesting part of the article.--ML5 (talk) 11:39, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Given that it happened so long ago, sources online were hard to come by. I presume the Times Union from that era might have run stories (if I can get to wherever they are) that would explain why they were torn down (My guess is that the SEIU and CSEA needed the space for their parking lots and no one was interested enough to save the houses). As for their reason for listing, I think it's sort of evident in the article that they were listed both for the architecture (Outside of the Lafayette Park Historic District, there aren't a lot of Federal style brick houses from that era left in Albany) and Dr. Hun's place in American medical history.
