A Heritage Hill classic from 1892, the Stone Chateau, and its new owners, Ron and Jeanne DeWaard with dog, Stubby, that I photographed for Grand Rapids Magazine. The previous residents were Grand Rapids mayor, John Logie, and wife, Susan, who bought the home in 1969 after it sat vacant for years and before the neighborhood was protected as a historic district. At one point, the home was at risk of demolition to make room for a medical building, but John helped place the neighborhood on the National Register of Historic Places to prevent urban renewal from erasing the area’s historic homes!
