Today on Boing Boing they featured the demolition of a 100-year old house in Seattle that was a block away from where we used to live.

We called the corner of Broadway and East Denny Way home for two years, living above a Kinko’s and Mongolian restaurant (although, I’ve been told the building might not be there any longer.) Lots of crazy stories from that place, including the time I was threatened by a barely five-foot tall elderly homeless man and the time a crazy, almost certainly high, homeless dude jumped out of the public bathroom with boxing gloves on… good times!
Anyway, I thought I’d share the video to show a little bit of where we used to live. Man, this made me miss Seattle even more today! I’ll be heading back for a conference in early June, so I am interested to see how much Seattle has changed over the last four or five years.
