Back in memory lane
The beige building with all those windows is a new building, but formerly, there was a famous sex shop and a bar next to it, and 2 apartments above those 2 businesses, I was lucky to know the clerk who worked at the sex shop who lived upstairs. She told me her apartment was available because she was moving to the apt next door. I was happy to have her next door. For me it was the perfect place! I liked this 2 bedrooms apt with 9ft tall walls. I am sure back in 1900’s it was a brothel, because Hull was famous to be the playground of Ottawa. There was a brothel every 2 or 3 doors on Eddy St. and Main St.
But no parking, and with all those government buildings, some paranoid subs believed that Govt employees were looking through their windows to check who comes in and out from my apt and the sex shop. I moved out after 2 years because my next door neighbor moved out and 2 middle age guys moved in her apt and left their door opened and smoked pot, (which I can’t stand the smell) and I did not want my subs to come face to face with those 2 fellows and neither do I. Then I missed my previous place space above Subway restaurant with the bread smell. 😆
