Is this the Madison Avenue House?

And is this the SelfMaster Parkway house?

That is for sure our Madison Avenue house (good find!!)

I am not sure if the other one is Gramma's house, remember the stairs went off to the side - not straight down. Also, I don't remember the dormer on the second floor.

we had a sun palor (porchlike) on the second story of our Madison Ave house that I don't see in this one???

If that's not Madison Ave house - she may be a goner... Or Google Maps is gaga.

Your right about Gram's stair to the side.... hmmm I wonder what number her house was....

Counting down...

That is most assuredly 505 Madison. I think the sunporch got ripped off over the years and maybe the downstairs porch got enclosed some. We went by this house a few years ago, and I drove down Second Street and looked in the backyard - and that all looks the same. It was nearly 50 years ago that we moved - can you believe that? Also Mr. Jolesch's house is still next door and kind of looks the same. I think maybe Grandma lived in the 700 block of Self Master, I wish I could remember her address...

This is Debbie, I dont know if I'm logged in...
I drove by Selfmaster Parkway with MiMi after her 50th high school reunion party which I went to with her. The house was white at that time... I probably have the address on one of the censue records I saved from when she was little. I think it was in the 600 block... or 60th... ?? I'll try to look it up for you guys. I know when we were parked out in front of it, it did not look familiar to me at all... it looked nothing like when Gram and Poppy still lived there. I think the front porch was enclosed and it looked kinda stark... I remember Poppy had these amazing hedges in front. Anyway... that's my two cents.
