On the Block: A Third Avenue demo plan and its neighbors
Tucked between the landmarked Belltown Self-Storage building and a Martin Selig Real Estate development site is Haddon Hall. Developed in 1910, the six-story building at 1921 Third Ave. began life as an apartment building. Plymouth Housing acquired it in 1996, then later converted it to a congregate residence.
