RoKet over at the Seattlest has another Re:Take photo and story from the archives, this one of a stately old home at 42nd and Burke. The 1916 photo is below, courtesy of the Seattle Municipal Archives, but head on over to the Seattlest to learn what this house has to do with the Aurora Bridge (and what the pooch in the pictures name is).

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Hey – that’s our house! Thanks to our neighbor, David, we checked this out on the Wallyhood site. It’s fun to learn a bit of history about our old house. What a great neighborhood we live in where everyone can share their information.
