- It is quite an interesting and informative read. I couldn't help but notice that they didn't really go into details has to how the Lott family came into contact with slaves for them to later free them. Another issue I have is, I tried clicking on the references listed and one of them stated that I needed java in order to see it. How will I know that the information provided is creditable if I cannot see where they got it from in the first place.Nadica7 (talk) 18:44, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
Per Reason,
editthe "last Lott descendant to live there" held off the New York commission trying to landmark the house. A hearing jeremiad that included the line
got them to back off and leave it alone until she passed. Seems not only worth mentioning but the single most noteworthy thing about the place, given how people usually think of landmarking buildings as a good thing. — LlywelynII 04:38, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
