wellington street

Wellington Street separates downtown from the Old South neighbourhood. Houses along this busy street vary from the well-kept to the leaky roof, I-need-a-fix-up. There is small block where the lots are large and the houses big.

Ummm, how neighbourhoods use to be designed. Not exactly eclectic but definitely not “mass produced communities with individuality removed” (I lifted this quote from Erika who commented on Carrie & Danielle’s blog today). These houses line three masculinely named streets off of Lincoln Park Avenue: Watson, Cecil and Norman.

This house stands out in the neighbourhood north of London Road, south of Exmouth and just east of Christina. The first time I went by I turned around to get another look. It is a cedar shingled home with water fountains, hostas galore, garden statues, stained glass, arbours, purple accents and large fir trees looming overhead. 

Someone with eclectic tastes lives here.
