Bankview is Beautiful

What is this - two simultaneous blog posts? Am I on a roll here or what! The truth is I take so many photos, but I only share a tiny amount on Instagram and FB.  I often stroll around my neighborhood and slowly add to my inventory of favourite images of Bankview.  This neighbourhood is actually so inspiring. There are lots of adorable century old homes and carefully tended gardens. There are a LOT of bad apartment buildings too. Just abhorrant architectural eyesores too.  Those I try to imagine what they could look like with an awesome update or even fresh finishes.  I actually have this dream for Bankview. That it become a little San Fransisco / Portland / Weird Boho intercity enclave of the absolutely most charming houses, old and new. Like every street and park is just an absolute gem of the city.  We need more rose bushes, more front porches and less cheap developer driven schlock. Turn up the charm factor. Here's some pics from a recent walk, take from the dog park just off 23rd Ave SW.
