flashback friday

christmas 1971 in the living room.

how it has changed: same chairs, new upholstery.

off-white carpets replacing the gold shag

same table. string art lampshade replaced with something worse. no ash trays.

TREES HAVE GROWN! certainly no view of Seward Park anymore.

no madrona outside the window either.

i think that planter still exists somewhere but with a different plant in it, of course.

house & deck are stained a lighter tan.

 

all those north-facing single pane windows = energy suck!

windows are still the same today. they've looked into replacing them but it wouldn't be worth doing at this point as the next owner will likely gut the place (ouch) and remodel. good-bye mid-century architecture.
