When did the foundation express interest in the house? Before or after it got some publicity. I have a problem with the way these foundations operate. So reactionary. Like a surrogate of government! The SXM Pride's of this island would be surprised to learn how many of these tiny old houses exist in certain districts. Districts that certain people don't venture into. Instead of being caught off-guard every-time, may I suggest going into EVERY district and taking inventory of historical buildings and not wait until there's a picture in the paper and the photo-op provides a convenient moment to act righteous.
