Oh Veronica. I’m sure you meant well. I know it was all the rage. But asbestos? Really?!
College Hill Folk Victorian doesn’t look much like a Folk Victorian and it’s all Veronica’s fault! OK. That’s harsh. It’s some of Veronica’s fault. She chose to cover the original wood siding with asbestos shingles in the 1950s and no one since has questioned her judgement or decided to do anything about it. At least no one covered it all in a third layer of something even worse, like vinyl siding.
