Bye Bye Betty's It was a party with a twist—a demolition party. "Neighbors and businesses surrounding Betty's happily came to witness the teardown. It's the end of a neighborhood eyesore, cited numerous times for code violations," said Keith Esses, a principal of New Haven Homes, which bought Betty's Resale Shop. The West Lake View Association and the Lake View Chamber of Commerce (LVCC) had long maintained that Betty's Resale was an impending catastrophe. Esses decided to throw the impromptu party "to celebrate a victory for area families." In its place, New Haven will build 12 quality condos and three stores. The condos will range from 1,100 to 1,600 square feet and cost from $300,000 to $400,000. "The Chamber is excited at the prospect of a new development which includes commercial use on the first floor," said Heather Way, LVCC executive director.
