Thanks for sharing! It must be disorienting to return to your childhood neighborhood, only for it to be so different. I visited a childhood home recently and was upset they painted the front door a different color, lol.

We had the classic “a witch lives in that home down the block” thing, but it may surprise you to learn she was just a grouchy old lady. (No magic powers. At least, none confirmed.)

Thanks for this story, I did research like this a few years ago for a mini-documentary I did for my father. It was fun tracking down all of the places he grew up.
