My childhood home has been bulldozed to widen a road. I feel like Charlie Brown. ---

Here’s mine. The red marker is a bit off though. My house is actually like a centimeter NW (across the street and on the left side). Still cool though. ---

Our house is [here.](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=3494&y=18261&z=14&w=1) It is 5 houses up from the left cul-de-sac. ---

[My current house](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=1427&y=22183&z=18&w=1) If you go up the block from the T-shaped building and the little building in the big parking lot, my house is the roundish looking part of that weirdly shaped white spot. It looks like my house has collided with my neighbors’ in that photo. [My house last year](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=1422&y=22181&z=18&w=1) It’s on the right side of the fork, the rectangular house. That corner was scary to live on. It refuses to find the street I grew up on. I certainly don’t remember my street being nine blocks long. ---

[The house we lived in when I was born](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=1866&y=18883&z=11&w=1): the road cutting NW-SE across the lower left corner is Laurel Canyon Drive in Los Angeles; the biggest road crossing it, trending SSW-NNE, is Mulholland Drive, as in the movie. Going north on Mulholland, the first right after Laurel Cyn is Woodrow Wilson Drive, which you’ve heard of if you’re an Elvis Cole fan. Mine’s the first house on the right (towards the bottom of the pic) once you’re on WW Dr. Once upon a time (as in, before aboout 1972), ordinary people could actually _afford_ real estate like that. [Where I grew up](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=4&s=8&x=6415&y=85840&z=18&w=1) (house in upper left) [Where I live now](http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=1827&y=21424&z=18&w=1), back when the neighborhood was under construction. Follow the main road winding from upper left to bottom center. See the cul-de-sac off the main road at bottom center? There’s a house under construction directly across the main road from the cul-de-sac; the house next to it on the main road, going up and to the left, is mine.
