The building looks more like a livery stable or blacksmith than a carriage house. The building facing Myrtle Ave was Sig Sanders market in the 50s...

Oh, who the hell cares? maybe now that the dump is gone someone can build a building that is USEFUL:like a home for some one. It was a dump because of the local historic COVEN not allowing for remodel or conversion into a home (I know, conversion is a dirty word, but what the hell). The COVEN should live and enjoy what they have if they have historic homes and interests, but they ought to STAY OUT OF other's business!!!

Run down chicken coops sell for $625,000.00 here in Santa Cruz.
I kid you not. Falling apart barns go for another 100 g's. It's sick.
I rent a 1.5 million dollar beach shack . It has a yard you know.
I miss my home town of Eureka but only when I'm filling out
the rent check.

Can anyone please tell us where this is?
The paper sort of LEFT OUT THE ADDRESS.
Small detail.
The Reporter would have had pics of the fire guys working the scene.
Oh well.
So where is this place guys?

It's not in Myrtletown. It's at the corner of Myrtle Avenue and Dean Street. It wasn't Crossroads.
Tell me when this thread is updated!
