Victorian homes in Elmira, NY

I have learned over the past 20 years all of the ins and out of Elmira NY Victorian and historical dilemmas. Some turn out to be great tragedies. While others turn out to be very successful. Elmira, NY does have people move here all the time from different states. Some are from Elmira originally and others just want to leave the big city life are in. Recently many old Victorian homes are being rehabed here in our City. We have new owners of these homes in Elmira's national historic district know as the "Near Westside Neighborhood" This home has been recently purchased and plans are to be open again as one of Western NYS premier B&B's Located in the historic Near Westside Neighborhood.
Here is a photo two doors to the West (formerly the Grand Spectacle) with new owners within the past three months. Hired by a local physicians group from Illinois.
This very High Victorian Home has been purchased in the spring with continuing renovations. See the inside here! Now this home has new owners. No info YET! But I do see the dumpster. New owners within the past 4 months.
This is a taste of the past few months of new Vic home owners in the historic district. Our historic district keeps many tradesman at work. And has done so for a century and a half. More soon. Make a donation to HistoricNearWestside. com TODAY! In my next enty will give a historical description of homes above.

Well we all know what happened over the last few years and that the new owner of Arthur Clinton House badly neglected and destroyed this house internally and externally. When will people ever learn that : If you take on a Historic House you have to nurse her like a baby to let her grow into something beautiful to be proud of !

Yes I do believe the new Mayor Susan Skidmore will be working on the bugs in the Chemung County Tax Auction. It is a crime on that end also unfortunately.
