this thread should link to this one

This is from my old flat. Not much of any view from my new one.

At least when I lived there any psychos had to climb over a fucking huge viaduct if they wanted to scare me.

The view of my front door and from my back window are eerily similar.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Thursday, 20 November 2003 04:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Cos I live in one of 4 identical bungalows.

eleven months pass...

I dont' have a back window now because I'm in an apartment, but I have lovely big bay windows in two directions....

to the east:

(mr teeny works in the very tall one with the triangle pattern; all the others are abandoned.

to the north:

this still makes me guffaw occasionally.

Wow, you really *do* have a swank place.

― Kenan (kenan), Sunday, 14 November 2004 22:46 (twenty-one years ago)

"guffaw occasionally": I think you're being disingenuous. I can imagine you excitedly waking up, wondering if it's still there, running to the curtains, flinging them open and...laughing. Laughing through a shower, through breakfast, laughing on the way to work.

Adam's pic is so East Bay!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Sunday, 14 November 2004 23:15 (twenty-one years ago)

it really is 'assn' but you can't see the 'n' unless you stand close to the window. Doesn't make it any less funny though.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 15 November 2004 08:34 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't have a pic, but you can easily imagine it: There is a parking lot in my backyard, and behind that, a ditch containing Interstate 84, along with some light rail and some Union Pacific train tracks. Beyond that, the ditch ends and there are more houses.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 15 November 2004 08:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Wait, teeny, ALL the other ones are abandoned?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 15 November 2004 08:44 (twenty-one years ago)

all the ones on that corner except for mine, yeah.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 15 November 2004 08:50 (twenty-one years ago)

That's kind of cool - you should knock through the walls and steal the other buildings.

― Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Monday, 15 November 2004 08:53 (twenty-one years ago)

That building to the right in my first picture is the Syndicate Trust building--it's been vacant for quite some time.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 15 November 2004 09:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Go squatting!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 15 November 2004 09:32 (twenty-one years ago)

they are tearing it down. :(((
