Old House Photos
I know some people are probably getting sick of this, but I found more old photos of homes in my neighborhood (taken anywhere from 1959-1964). I now have photos for nearly my entire block. These ones took some time locating, but they're pretty cool! The last photo I have posted is actually not in my neighborhood. It is significant because it is my home's "twin"...identical in every way except garage size (my home is "one car"). Also, my home is built into a hill, so half of the basement is "above ground", the other house's basement is all below grade. Immediately following these four photos (in the same order) are photos of these homes now.
Chris, these are just really cool. I'm so glad you found and posted them. In fact, I've loved your whole site so much, I've nominated you for the "You've Made My Day Award," because you so often have made my day. If you'd like to see what I had to say about your blog, the other nominees, and how to "spread the love," feel free to stop in at my blog. In the meantime, I hope winter is starting to ease its grasp on you a little bit!
