Louis Micheels House was a single family home in Westport, Connecticut, designed in the style of the Sarasota School of Architecture by founder Paul Rudolph.
The Louis Micheels House was a 4,200 sq ft (390 m2) home in Westport, Connecticut, a town on Long Island Sound.
The land was purchased by the Micheels on July 12, 1971, and Rudolph was hired to design a home which had a "light, airy feeling".
One media outlet reported on the potential for a raze permit to demolish the house in a section they entitled "Teardown of the Day."
When no deal happened Connecticut's Attorney General Richard Blumenthal filed an injunction prohibiting demolition.
The couple immediately had the building razed to make way for a larger 6,200 sq ft (580 m2) home, and attended the demolition.
