It turns out the historic Gates House is gone, although some of its elements will be applied to a recreation near its site, designed by U.K. Architects.

The article in The Dartmouth on South Block progress points out that only parts of the building will be saved.

The bakery that will move into the building, Umpleby’s, is blogging about the construction and has posted photographs of the empty building site and the rear of the original house before dismantling; the ground-level framing of the replacement; the framing of the walls to the roofline; the completion of the basic form (it really follows the form of the original); and the completed building covered in Tyvek.
