This short tree-lined stretch of pavement is a perfect example of the use of the word “Avenue.” I said earlier in the month that more pictures would come from Grant Avenue, and here is one of the Grand Ladies that I was always so fascinated by as a kid.

A half mile in either direction, things look very different, but here between Sudley Road and Church Street are mostly grand old homes. Some have been meticulously kept over the years, some have been brought back, and a few are showing their age. But most of them have yards of a size not often found in the area, and none of them look just like the house next door.
