Newsworthy Hue

Umm...this might be a problem for the neighbors.



This 1922 Neel Reid house on W. Wesley was built by Henry and Isabel Tompkins. It used to look like this until last week:



There was a blurb about the new color on the house in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper yesterday. Here's the quote:

Coming Sunday, Old Home's Neighbors Boo Hue
"A historic home in the tony Peachtree Heights West neighborhood has a fresh coat of paint and some freshly annoyed neighbors. The owner has saved the famous house from disrepair, but it's new color doesn't blend well with surrounding homes. "


And there is more in the Metro section today. Apparently, the neighbors aren't happy. What do you think? Leave a comment.

ps - I found these photos of a Neel Reid house in Macon on this website. I do just love Neel Reid's houses!
