Talking Historic Designation on the True Tales From Old Houses Podcast (Part II)
/Podcast time! Now live is part II of my episodes on the podcast True Tales From Old Houses! During part II, Stacy and I are talking all about how and why my home received historic designation, the amount of money I don’t pay on my property taxes anymore, gentrification and issues with Mills Act, city permitting challenges, neighbor disputes, and what I’m allowed to do and what I have to do to my historic home.
Listen to the part II episode below where Stacy and Devyn chat about old house heating and cooling for the first 15 minutes, then I start rambling on for the rest of the show! You can use the podcast players I embedded, or listen on your favorite podcast platforms that I also linked to.

Listen To The Part I Episode:
Did you miss the first portion of my episode? In part I, we chatted about old homes, energy efficiency, sustainable improvements, modern upgrades, old window efficiency, and weighing the pros and cons of green updates like solar panels. This was a great conversation because I got to share some things that I haven’t discussed this in-depth on the blog nor on Instagram. Listen below after Stacy shares her own home updates for the first 8 minutes.
