The house stock and the demolition ledger: printed

Tested, November 2026

The checklist's house-by-house items — the two oldest houses, the mansion stock, the planned subdivision — return a tested thin record for this town, and the leg prints it thin. No carrier reached names a candidate for the town's oldest surviving house, dates the Antrim-era house stock, or documents a mansion class: North Liberty was a farm-service village, and its documented grand buildings are commercial, not domestic. The housing character the record does give is statistical and dated: the ACS 2020–2024 survey counts 89.7 percent of the town's units as single-family and 37.7 percent as built in 1939 or earlier (banked current-today section) — an old house stock in aggregate, unnamed house by house. No planned subdivision with a house count and design count on the floor's pattern was reached. And no demolition ledger exists in any carrier reached: individual losses surface inside other records — the bank block's altered Worster Building, the covered facades of the district inventory — but no dated list of major demolitions and replacements for the town was found, and none is assembled here from inference. Each of these items stands as a named gap in the pass note, with the county survey and Sanborn sequence named as its settlers. The built city, as the record stands in November 2026, is a Register block, a Register park, and a town of pre-war houses around them — documented at exactly that depth, and no deeper by assertion.
