Here’s a complete list of every home that’s been demolished in the proposed Eastmoreland historic district in the last three years.
3612 SE Crystal Springs Blvd (see photo)
That’s it. One house, of 1,279.
Don’t be misled by wild claims that developers are destroying the neighborhood.
No developer swooped in to erect a mansion. No old trees uprooted. Just a new homeowner building their new home. And it looks like it will have much the same form factor as the previous house.
Here’s what the HD nomination document says about the old house.

Alterations: Information from a neighboring property owner: House, and its various components largely built between 1944 and 1949. While under construction, original permit was amended to include a front living room expansion; garage permitted in 1945, small sun room added to rear of the house in 1949 (all within period of significance)
