SCOTLANDVILLE - A long-abandoned property on Curlew Street has finally met its end. For years, the home stood vacant after a tree fell on it, leaving it uninhabitable. The property at 730 Curlew St. was condemned in October 2023, and became an eyesore in the neighborhood. On Thursday, the building was torn down—thanks to the efforts of Mayor-President "Coach" Sid Edwards. Mayor Edwards took control of an excavator and began demolishing the house, signaling a fresh start for the neighborhood.
