Demolition of Derr House Draws Frederick HDC Outcry
Frederick's Historic District Commission voiced disappointment as the 18th century Sebastian Derr House in Dearbought faces demolition after an agreement among the city Frederick County Landmarks Foundation and Natelli Communities. The deal, endorsed by the Maryland Historical Trust, cites prohibitive restoration costs. Community members urge developers to honor promises while the measure awaits final mayoral and alderman approval. In other action, the HDC approved renovations for five West All Saints Street homes funded by city block grants and a federal housing grant, with five residents already settled.
