Doorway, to an upstairs apartment. That of the owner of this Broadway building. She is now about 97 and still in residence. Although she doesn't navigate the stairs now. :-)

She is one of the few old-time city residents, in her age bracket.

Summer... '07

I love the Summer season around my city. Many people, living in many precious houses, love to plant flowers. And put hanging flower pots and porch furniture and the like, on their porches. These houses look so happily 'prettied-up' for Summer. In fact, there is a yearly contest for the prettiest Summer porch.

And this is one of my favorites!!!
But it's probably won a lot. Maybe have to wait its turn, this year. We'll see...

Carriage House, North side....


-sigh- I seem to have lost the pic I took of the window repairs here. Everything was removed, below these two North side windows. It looked as if the windows were being made, into doors. But I talked with the Caretaker {who is in charge of this project} and he said that so much damage was under the windows... That the stone and everything had to be removed. Then cleaning out done. And all replaced. And so it has been done.

But without my in-between photo, you'd not know anything had been done.

And I suppose, this is what makes this job so well done. Though all is set to rights, nothing of that process, shows.
