| BEFORE RECONSTRUCTION.... variously known as Old Man Bradford's house or Tai Chi's house, it had been falling into disrepair for decades. You can see the channel dug by storm tides washing through the property |
 |
| ALSO BEFORE.... The area behind the cottage in question, a meadow that is the lowest-lying place on Duxbury Beach. This picture and the picture above are from a 2007 nor'easter. |
 |
| DURING.... Shot from Gurnet Road, the shanty has been torn down. |
 |
| AFTER.... 71 Ocean Road North, reporting for duty. We'll see how this Irish Riviera gentrification job holds up against the nor'easters... |
 |
| ... like this one, with waves hitting the seawall right in front of the new house. Bonne Chance! |
