Several years ago I walked down "memory lane," (77960-7990 170th Ave. NE) coined Adair Street by the Redmond Historical Society. Ms. Adair was a land doner. I took this video of three cottages circa 1930's and a 97 year-old craftsman home (owned by real estate appraiser Alan Pope. Mr. Pope is a native of Redmond; he graduated from Lake Washington High.) The homes were demolished last month to build eighteen, 3BR "Penny Lane" townhomes. The development is only a five minute walk to Anderson Park. Sad to see these vintage homes go but the site is perfect for the city's needs of density and family housing equity.
An extensive "cultural resource assessment" was conducted to assess: environmental, archaeological, ethnographic, and historical culture. -- Special thanks to Gary Smith for finding and sharing the assessment.
