History


Look at the detail in this old place!


I drive by here frequently and wonder about its history.
There are renters living there so I can't just camp out front 
and take pictures.
This was taken from the driveway next door to a small strip mall.
The property is for sale and zoned commercial 
so the house is gonna go.
Too bad.

  2. What a lovely old place. This happens so often. Wonderful places with so much individuality and character are torn down to make room for.. likely a new shopping mall. Really, i won't get started on that here. I'll just say this place is beautiful, and i'm glad you got this photo before it goes. :)

  3. Love the architecture of the windows. These grand old buildings are getting more scarce all the time.

  6. What a beautiful place. Looks like it could be a historical marker. It should not be torn down but reinvented.
