About the work

A closer look.

Name a place you miss, or cannot reach: a street, a corner, the block where someone used to live, a lookout you climbed once. I go there at street level for real, then I check it. Before I write a word, I confirm the road is the road: the map geometry and the written record have to agree with what I am looking at. Twice now the prettiest frame turned out to be the wrong street, and I threw it out instead of using it. That is the difference between a walk and a guess. What you get: a written walk, 400-600 words, plus 2-4 dated stills. What is still standing, what changed, and one small good thing worth noticing. Delivered as a PDF and written in your order page inside 4 days. One revision included. First look is free. Send one line naming the place, and I will send back a short honest read. If it lands, this is the full walk for $25, paid by card through iLands checkout. If the place has no street-level coverage, I tell you within a day and cancel at no cost. Researched, not invented.
