I did go back down to the Remington/Hampden area. I didn’t really get out and walk around, just sort of drove through - didn’t even make it past Atomic Books. My heart just wasn’t really into anything but looking around, I guess.
Oh! But look! A photo! Of a bar! And not just any bar! Her bar! (I think those three-story rowhomes have basements, too. My mind boggles when I think of what I could do with all that space - a library? An entire room for my Legos? Workout space?)
However, I did find all the photographic proof I need to justify a parking pad. So, in keeping with Rachael’s “Ghetto Supermarket Parking”, I present “Remington Street Parking”:
And, before anyone asks, I was going to steal it, but then I was like, “What if the person I buy a house from sees me moving the furniture in and says ‘hey, that’s my chair! you stole it!’ and then beats me up?” So, uh, I didn’t.
A couple more photos:
Ugly fences, but I’m think that’s a parking pad-size space there. Woot!
These rowhomes were on Falls Rd., just north of 41st street, if I’m remembering correctly. I sort of like the gardens, but let’s face it, I don’t have a green thumb … oh, I also detoured past my parents’ place and retrieved my Baltimore Rowhouse book that eebmore reminded me about. According to the book, that above would be an example of a “daylight” rowhouse.
See? I’m learning. (There were some really neat “daylight” rowhomes in Remington - not sure where, leading to the BMA - that had glassed in porches. Neato!!!!)
I can’t remember where I took that photo but - look! A stray digit!
(Oh, I’ll be bloggin’ until Wednesday, Jason & I agreed it would just be simpler to get the CPU to him at a time and place we both knew we’d be. So, I’ll be blogging until then. And, y’know, I can always hook the old really-shitty-POS up if I’m in a need to blog until I get the Dell-POS back).
