Dear Historic Commissioners,
1 am writing to you in support of William and Sherry Lawson 's
application for a permit to raze their house at 133 Gosnold Street in Hyannis.
I am a Hyannis native and my family has been on Highland
Street in Hyannis since my grandparents moved their family there from Camp Street in
Hyannis in the early 1920's. I have made hundreds of trips up and down Gosnold Street
in my seventy five years and can say with great certainty that the Lawson 's house is not
a distinctive structure in any way.
My wife and I lived at 133 Gosnold Street for a short time
when our house was under construction . I have seen the house inside and out and can
say that it has no unusual or notable architectural features. The razing of the house will
not in any way damage the character of the neighborhood .
I urge you to approve the immediate removal of the
Lawson 's house.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you .
Sincerely,
Peter L. Cross

We would like to express our opinion on Bill and Sherry Lawson's desire to construct a new
home after demolishing the present home on 133 Gosnold St.
After speaking with abutters of this property we feel confident that the newly constructed home
would be a much needed improvement in the neighborhood .
We certainly appreciate the value to the community of having an active Historical Commission
and will accept all decisions that come from the committee as beneficial to Hyannis.
