Air Force Tears Down Historic Wright-Patterson House After $1.2M Renovation

A little over a decade after the Air Force spent some $1.2 million to renovate a former officer's home on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the home was demolished last month, according to information obtained by the Dayton Daily News.

The Air Force spent $1.24 million, plus $77,000 in furnishings, to renovate the Charles Taylor House, a 3,500-square-foot, three-bedroom, three-bathroom Tudor-style brick home, this newspaper reported in 2012.

The final expenditure was about $400,000 more than the project's initial estimated cost.

Base officials say the house was demolished this year after being designated "excess infrastructure."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

At least it was just a house.  The Navy chose to renovate some cruisers at 1,000 times the cost of the house before trashing them. :thud:
