EPISODE 229    THE BARN THAT ONCE STOOD WHERE A STREET GOES NOW (TRAFALGAR ROAD NEAR HIGHWAY 7]<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
This suburban Georgetown street on the east side of Trafalgar Road preys on my mind every time  I drive by.  <\/div>\n
(just beside the rail line) The pace  of change<\/div>\n
has been feverish  in the last several decades.  Can\u2019t be  helped.  Can\u2019t be stopped.  May well be  a<\/div>\n
force for good.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
But change means loss.  New replaces old.  Take  close look at this street\u2026then try to superimpose<\/div>\n
a time when the street was  not there\u2026when a large beautiful barn sat four square on the ground<\/div>\n
that is now asphalt enclosed by nice residential houses.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Over the years I took several pictures of that barn\u2026even when its demolition was apparent.  Even<\/div>\n
when fire nearly preceded the demolition.<\/div>\n
