Development threatens history

| | Comments (0) |

A little bungalow in the heart of this community is renewing a big debate about historic preservation across the San Fernando Valley Connie Llanos in the Daily News..

Brought to the area in 1904, the bungalow was home to Wilson C. Weddington, a member of one of the Valley's first families, the area's first postmaster and a key figure in the region's early development.

But while the house has been designated a cultural monument, booming development in the region means it faces demolition unless owner JSM Construction finds a new site for it within 180 days.
