WEBSTER - The Town tore down one of its top nuisance properties last week. The store front property at 476 South Main Street was demolished in short order on Tuesday. The building adjacent to it, also an eyesore, is structureally sound and will be repaired by the new owner immediately. Tom Murray of TMUR Construction LLC, which purchased the building from Gregg A. Seraphin in February, understood the situation and is cooperating with the building inspector, said Board of Health Agent Cathleen Liberty. The Town paid for the razing of the building because it was a public safety issue and had to be done immediately.
