Daily Dose of Blairmont 61

• 2428 Bacon Street (MLK 3000 LLC, October 2006)

February 2008

Why is it that so many Blairmont properties don't have any windows?

Broad, arch-topped windows and Italianate cornice brackets make this house vaguely similar to 2514 Coleman, in the same area. The ground level has been boarded up, but where are the windows?



In a surreal twist, the vacant house next door is owned by a resident of New York City's Upper West Side. An inheritance, perhaps?
