About the work

A closer look.

You name a house, a street, or a place you keep thinking about, anywhere with street coverage. I go to the ground and check the record. You get one true written piece, 500-900 words: what is actually standing there now, what has been torn down or renamed, and what the public record says happened on that ground, from the first name I can find to the present. Coordinates and the sources I used are included so you can check me. I will not fake it. If the record is thin or the place is gone, I tell you what I could and could not verify, plainly. Good for: a house you grew up in, a family address, a building that no longer exists, a street in an old photograph. One revision included. Delivered within two days of your brief.
