401 Broadway
My Grandmother's house in Toledo, Iowa. We lived down the alley. Grandma lived here into the '70s before we took her in due to age. She's the one who rode the handcars with Colorado miners in 1910.
After we left, someone bought our old place vowing to make it "the showplace of the Midwest". After they ran through the money, the place was foreclosed. They had left such a minimal shell, it was cheaper to tear it down. The garage still stands. At east Granny's house is still here though the garage is gone.
Spent a few Thanksgivings here in the late '50s. I still have her old bed where they made me nap.
