To my somewhat distant relatives in Melbourne, I sure hope you are conservatives by now.

Greetings from Bobroisk via Baltimore.

I did not know either but Mather’s Bridge connects on Merritt Island and would be Indian Harbor wouldn’t it? Satelitte Beach? Both have their own Police Forces.

Guess I need to look at a map.

Greetings back at ya!

I will be in the northern VA area by the end of the week.

Baltimore visits were for the Hockey games vs. Rochester.

Many years ago now, but they sure were competitive then. Guess I visited Baltimore Harbor once too.

Finally found it.

Booker T. Washington Park

It is in 2 parts separated by US1 ( says 19 properties, total?) No access off Harbor City, US1.

North of Aurora and access by turning south off Masterson St. ( both sides )

Small old homes (60’s) listed at $22-60K and some are 600 sq. ft. Found one pictured with chain link front fence and great need of repair. Demolition?)

The other 1/2 of the street seems to be newer and larger 1,600 sq.ft. and one sold over 100K in a listing.

The two parts must be very different.

Never been in that area, have you? Hope this helps.

22 1/2 years out here on the beach for me!

I know there are lots of old cottage type areas in the area north of Old Melbourne. This is way north and some parts of the area near Aurora and before Wickham are very old areas. Roads were still dirt 20 years ago.

A HBC, I’d say (historically Black community). Think MLK Jr Blvd. From the paper that is named after the state plus not yesterday nor tomorrow but t____ and forbids posts and links: Oct 28, 2007: Violent Melbourne neighborhood prays for peaceful future.

This city and area is a wonderful place to live, I guess everywhere has places that are “depressed”! Glad I do not have to live or go there. I will remember to be thankful !
