The Express-Times’ look back at this date in history (read the full article here) includes this tidbit from 25 years ago:
Despite a yearlong effort by preservationists, a bulldozer began demolition of the 93-year-old Victorian mansion in Nazareth known as the Miller House to make way for expansion of a nursing home. Nazareth Mayor Charles Peischl called the razing of the stately mansion, built by railroad magnate Conrad Miller, "almost an act of defiance to the clearly voiced community sentiment.”
This year saw the expansion of the home complete with the opening of the new wing of Alexandria Manor on the corner of New and Center Streets.
