Wellesley House Demolition Sept 2013
This is a fairly common phenom in Wellesley Massachusetts. 1940 and 1950s vintage homes are being demolished, and newer, bigger houses are going up. Before you get too nostalgic for the old places, remember that they are small, cramped, and have old school electrics (safety?), and often inefficient heating systems. The new houses will be safer, roomier and cheaper to heat. And a lot of people are getting work, who had nothing after the 2008 crash. Shot with a Sony HX5V
