Historic bungalow in Delray becomes focus of moving debate
When the 1925 bungalow-style home was moved across Palm Beach County 13 years ago, saving it from demolition, historic preservationists cheered. Now that it might be moving again, it's drawing protests. The white stucco-and-stone bungalow, located in the heart of the Old School Square Historic District, is in the way of a plan for new stores, an office and residential units. Kirk Joseph Witecha, who lives in the bungalow and uses it as an office, has worked out a deal for the Community Redevelopment Agency to take it off his hands. The CRA, which operates out of a 1939 Monterey-style house next door on North Swinton Avenue, would combine the office and bungalow into one building. The move, CRA officials say, is the only way the bungalow's preservation could be guaranteed. Otherwise, they said, the house could be in danger of demolition. But activists say the building shouldn't be touched. "There's no excuse to allow them to move that building," said resident Claudia Willis, who has e-mailed city officials about the issue. She said that in city laws, "there is nowhere that I can find that it could be demolished. It has to either be a financial burden to the owner, which it is not, or it has to be uninhabitable."
