Like a trailer park … causing traffic gridlock and endless parking problems..
but eh… who cares ! Lmao
Certainly 100% different from when I’d stop off at the Red Cross building! Definitely miss the great mid-1850s house that housed att. Gunn’s office. Downtown bucolic that once epitomized this “town of homes.”
The Gunn house has been moved across Elm Street, to the Baldwin Parking Lot. It’s now the home of Serena & Lily.
Feels quite “Parisian-street-cafe”, and I like that! Still amazing to me what that alley/street was like when the YMCA was there. It was quiet and, well, utilitarian. Just an “access road” for so long. A whole different vibe today!
