Stories:
Story 1: Ginny Alter (810 Myrtle) went to Indiana to visit the Gunnison factory to find out how Gunnison houses were built.Story 2: In Village Views June 1974 When Gene Schott pitched for the Reds back in the '40s he lived at 807 Lexington Avenue. If he could pitch ball like he could horse shoes, he would still be with them. I wonder if this is the correct address?
Story 3: In the storm of July 21, 2008 a large tree came down from across Lexington Avenue and landed on this house crushing a part of the roof.
