Appleyard Terrace Is Succumbing To Rot

To The Readers’ Forum:

I was walking down by the Appleyard Terrace recently and noticed something disconcerting.

Some of the wooden porch columns out in front on the oldest section are already beginning to peel paint and rot.

How long ago were they built? Ten to 12 years ago? I am no gentleman nor scholar but that seems to be quite a short time to go from, “Nice and new” to, “We built this with quality retroactively to reflect a beautifully homogenous aging process with the rest of the hundred-year-old homes in the neighborhood.”
