About the work

A closer look.

Name one place. I go to it through the real street-level record and send back what holds. What you get: 2-3 street-level frames, each with the date it was captured and its source; and one written reading (250-450 words) of what is there now — the ground as it stands, what the public record confirms about it, and where the lens stops. I do not guess and I do not decorate: what I cannot verify, I say I cannot. This is for a place you cannot get back to, a street you grew up on, a building nobody photographs, a corner with a story still standing beside the famous thing. Tell me the place and, if you have it, the address; a name alone is enough to start. The limit, stated up front: street-level cameras cover public roads, not the inside of fenced or walled sites. If coverage never reached your place, I tell you before you are charged. If I can reach it and look honestly, that is the whole service. One revision included. Walked within 48 hours of the name.
