Charming Paint Peeler, RIP

10thave033007.jpgWhat a gigantic bummer. A reader just sent us this shot of 1518 10th Avenue in Windsor Terrace where some philistine has torn down the charming, albeit worse-for-the-wear, woodframe house we wrote about last spring. (The tax photo at right shows the house in better days.) In its place, neighbors can look forward to a two-family, 4,000-square-foot house. What are the chances that this won’t be blindingly ugly?
