FOR EDWIN Ford, the city of Kingston's historian, the planned demolition of a 19th century trolley barn to make way for a drugstore is a bitter pill to swallow. So the 86-year-old preservationist has suggested a prescription to Walgreens Pharmacy executives. In a letter, Ford has asked the chain to consider building a new store in the city's Rondout district instead of on Midtown parcels at Broadway and East Chester Street, where the trolley barn, built in the late 1800s, sits atop polluted soil.
