On a gray, rainy Wednesday morning, these buildings on Pulaski Street, commonly known as the "twin sister" houses, look cold, dreary and badly in need of repair. However, next year in the fall, the LCHS building trades class will begin a restoration project that will turn the homely sisters into the beauties they once were. Working for and with a not-for-profit formed by local businessman David Lanterman, the class will restore the homes to livable condition. When the project is completed, the properties will be leased out, with net profits to be invested back into the community in future downtown beautification or renovation projects.
