Free Range by Bill Whitehead for November 09, 2020

Not far from “Adobe” Acres.

I once lived on the top floor of a 12-story building next to a 40-story building six inches away. That was exactly the view from my bedroom. I eventually just painted over the window glass to match the walls.

Security!

Wasn’t that an episode of Twilight Zone?

I’ve been in a few areas like that. Very inexpensive. Very roachy. Very little good English spoken, if any at all.

The question you should be asking is are the bricks to keep you in, or to keep something out?

Premium apartments in Chicago are like this. You are next door to the Chicago L.

This funky apartment must be right next to Montoni’s in Westview, aka, Bricksville.

I thought every subdivision name had to have something related to forest and/or water?

All in all you’re just another brick in the wall…

Put up a painting with sun and trees. Better yet, an ocean view with palm trees.
