Three months ago, Katrina’s storm surge swept a
Frank Lloyd Wright-designed cottage in Ocean Springs, Miss., off its foundation, destroying one of its wings and damaging most
of the rest.Now the 115-year-old beachfront bungalow, part of a National Register Historic District, is facing a final blow:
A FEMA-hired engineering firm has declared the Charnley Cottage and its octagonal guest cottage "not reasonably restorable," which means FEMA could demolish the houses in the next few months.
contact the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy if you are able to help.
That is really bad! Hurricane Katrina damages most of the property. As the bungalow was quite old the Hurricane damages the bungalow easily. The structure of the house gets easily damaged during hurricane season so it is most important for a homeowner to take precautions in order to maintain the structure of the home. To prevent him from getting damage a homeowner may install storm-proof windows and doors and also storm shutter to protect their home from the storm. A Home insurance policy covers structural damage from the storm. After the damage a homeowner may also apply for an insurance to get the money for the repair. A Home insurance claim adjuster( http://allclaimsusa.com/home-insurance-claim-adjuster ) helps policyholder for filing the claim and get the repair money to do the repair.
