he Stuart News Thursday, November 1, 1973 On Saving Our Heritage By Preserving Landmarks “The sad fact is that all over America historic buildings and homes are being destroyed, victims of the bulldozer and the mindless wrecker’s ball, the inexorable weapons of creeping mediocrity. We saw it happen with the Florida East Coast Railway station in downtown Stuart, a building which should have been moved and preserved. Dozens of old residences, some with fine architectural lines, have been bulldozed down “just because they were old.” Through the philanthropy of Les Combes, the old Log Cabin has been dismantled and stored, hopefully will be rebuilt in Possum Long Park if funds can be secured. As one architect put it well: “A city without its old buildings is like a man without a memory. If we stand by silently as they disappear, future generations will look back in anger at the trust we held in our hands and betrayed.””
