Crafted to last

Article Abstract:

What architect Jay Haverson found when he checked out a just--on-the-market lakeside property in his hometown of Greenwich, Connecticut was that a nice piece of land never loses its appeal, but sometimes the house that's sitting on it falls into dated obsolescence. A few tips gleaned from Haverson's project are mentioned that will add to the new house's timelessness and craftsmanship.
