landmarks, cont'd.

buildings can be lost so quickly, like this wonderful upjohn church on 24th st that burned in early may --- 

merchants house (ca. 1832) in the east village is a fine little house museum -- established in the 1930s by a descendant of the family that purchased it in the 1830s --- a lot of original furnishings and decoration and a great little walled garden in the rear --- i hope it survives new construction next door
