SAVE HOYT BARNUM HOUSE - FIRST BLOG

SAVE HOYT BARNUM HOUSE - THE BLOG

Folks, Stamford, Connecticut is a strangely beautiful and disturbing city.  Most disturbing is their disregard for their own history.  We are here to fight that and create a more appealing environment for residents and visitors alike.

This battle starts now with the Hoyt Barnum House. Built in 1699, it is the oldest colonial era structure in the city.  There is a plan to "relocate" the building.  We firmly believe this is the worst possible decision for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the high risk associated with disassembling a building that is some 317 years old.

So, we have started this blog to inform the public, report on our efforts, and to solicit your involvement in this ongoing battle.  There are only a few months, so we are under pressure to get results asap.  We will be reporting out on various features of what is the Hoyt Barnum Media Project.

Stay Tuned....
