Dr. Ossian Sweet Home at Garland and Charlevoix

[Kathleen]

I was taking pictures of Dr. Sweet's home at Garland and Charlevoix yesterday. The administration in Washington granted about $500,000 to restore the home as an important historical site. I saw no signs of any work begin accomplished. Earlier posts on this tread suggested that work would start on this historic site in April of this year. Does anyone know the reason for the apparent delay? Thank you.

I'd guess that the current COVID pandemic has slowed down the progress here, just as it has slowed or completed halted endeavors across the spectrum. Owner Daniel Baxter is involved in local government so likely has a lot on his plate at this time.
