Saving Phoenix’s 124-Year-Old Home
from Phoenix News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A 124-year-old Phoenix landmark, the Louis Emerson House, faces demolition as Arizona State University seeks eminent domain for a new medical school. Instead of legal battles, preservationists are rallying to raise $3 million to relocate the historic home — a move done before, and to fund a new nonprofit to protect other at-risk historic buildings. The current owner, Robert Young, says the fight is draining his finances and health, questioning why he must prove the house’s value. The fate of this Phoenix icon now hinges on whether the community can raise the funds to save it. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
