ISD Apparently Takes an Interest in Alvah Kittredge's House


The City of Boston Inspectional Services Department (ISD) has apparently taken a recent interest in the Alvah Kittredge House [Previous article].

About two weeks ago fluorescent green caution tape bearing the city seal, ISD's name, and the instruction to keep out, appeared draped across the slap-dash chain link fencing stretched around the house's ramshackle porch.

One might wonder what city regulations are in violation, but it's possibly a shorter task to list the ones not in violation.
