According to their info, the city acquired the house from the previous owners through the spot blight abatement process, and HRF purchased it from the city in 2011.

But now that I'm past the growing pains, and writing posts more than 15 minutes in advance, I'm planning on taking some current day pics myself to go along with some of the posts.Vintage Richmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09253548945680329134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577508041560697152.post-72992606044922880912010-11-30T20:47:22.984-05:002010-11-30T20:47:22.984-05:00As much as I like this site and enjoy the photos, ...As much as I like this site and enjoy the photos, somebody should take the time to go to these sites and get some real photos. These images from Google Earth or wherever they came from don't do service to the amount of time spent on the site.claymonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05217324765636521419noreply@blogger.com
