...alert me that 2400 Dupont Ave. N. is scheduled to be demolished two days from now, on Monday afternoon, and this is apparently the largest apartment building to be demolished in this round of property tear-downs. Yes, 3119 4th St. N. was big, but this one is bigger.
When the building was occupied, according to "Tough Glove," it was "a real pain."
Revitalization progress is busting out all over, and a few days ago came news of a deal struck with major lenders for foreclosures to be bought "in bulk" for neighborhood revitalization efforts: fix 'em up or tear 'em down.

And that's a good thing.
Hawthorne is full of amazing characters.
