289 1/2 Clarence St, Ottawa, Ontario

This is a photo from Google Maps. I was very excited to find the apartment house where I lived 45 years ago when I lived in Ottawa for almost two years. It looks like they added a brick facade and spruced the place up a bit. We lived in a second floor apartment that could only be accessed from the back of the building. It was a somewhat odd apartment, but more than adequate for our needs. We were very young and poor and this place was one of the few affordable apartments we could find. Rent was $80 a month!

What a neat looking place! I wonder what the rent is now.

A nice Google image and interesting for you to reflect back on the place you once lived.

A virtual tour of your old neighborhood. Amazing what modern technology can do.

Cool result from google maps. You were able to fix this up nicely. When you are young these hardships are part of the adventure. I lived in a group house with 18 other people when I was in College. Unthinkable now.

Your street shot is composed nicely and in very eye appealing light.
