Welcome to 30 Elm St.

Long story short. We found this 12 bed room 8,000 sq ft Queen Anne Victorian that had been on the market over a year and decided to go for it. We sold our current house. Used every penny we had to buy it. Please join us on our adventure of bringing her back to the beautiful lady she was meant to be.

Please understand the renovations are going to be slow going and based on the amount of funds we have to do them. I plan on doing 90% of the labor with my kids but materials and tools can be costly. We plan on streaming, videoing and documenting (here) the repairs that are done too. This can slow things down but at the same time will allow everyone to be a part of it.

I do apologize in apologize in advance for the video quality once we start recording. We planed on getting a insta360 x3, but after closing I could not even get a snickers bar, LOL.

Also the newspaper articles in this wiki the text was scanned. So there is a lot of miss spelling to down right gibberish. After we get them all in we will be going back thru and fixing them.

We have found 105 (20 articles per page) pages of news paper articles on https://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/ when we search for 30 Elm St Potsdam. So far we have managed to go thru 9 pages of them.
