Harry Street and Philosophical Doggie



26th of October Street Heights is a fascinating neighborhood. A few blocks away from The Great Plotnik World Headquarters is Harry Street, a street that isn't really a street but is instead a wooden stairway of many steps, heading up a steep hill. A few houses have their entrances off the stairway, which looks less like it is in Saint Plotniko than the forest outside Hansel and Gretel's house.



This house on Harry Street came up for sale a few months ago for the usual million plus, with the added bonus of a walk of at least seventy-five stairs up or down every time you'd want to bring in groceries or your stand-up bass.

Naturally, nobody loves Harry Street more than Mischief. This pose has caught him being thoughtful, philosophical even, with his front half anyway.



The walk up leads to a walk down, and man and dog end up staring at beautiful views of the city from a block above World Headquarters. That's the beautiful thing about 26th of October Street Heights-- every block has another view and they're all different.

Going up those steps is really the only way in or out of those houses? Man, what a bummer to get a piano to the house. And they'd better never catch fire.

Only if SF...

How did you end up with Mischief this week? I'm trying to decipher TGP code again: where the heck is this?

I've never heard of this street ~ we'll take Husbando next time (by car). We had some dirt roads like this around our nabe, but now it seems that they've all been upgraded. But hey, I embrace change...
