Horrible waste of a beautiful, historic home. Very, very sad and, yes, I wholeheartedly agree that Lake Geneva needs to step up and pass laws to protect these prestigious, historic homes! Not to mention holding owners and contractors accountable for repurposing materials from homes that are demolished. Shame on Lake Geneva for not doing the right thing for historic homes and the environment!!!

I have just read about the demolish of the estate Villa Hortensia. What a waste. I grew up on that estate in the '40 & '50 and my dad was the foreman. At least the house I lived in is still there. At least I have some great memories living there. Judy Faber Vanderslice. My dads' name was Emil Faber
