I live in a town where at least 98% of the beautiful historical homes have been torn down. I would give anything to live in a home like the cottage pictured in this post, but there aren't any available in my town. I would hate for Denton to lose such an important part of its history.

By the way, the City no say in this--State trumps City and TWU doesn't need permits or permission from the City to demolish or build anything on their property.
