Reply to Hi there, was wondering if anyone knew why this building was covered like that? Just curious! It’s on Smithfield I believe by ldcat
It's a modesty veil. A little too close to Weiner World. Doesn't want to draw the wrong kind of attention.

They don't have a Jupiter 8 but they have some cool stuff.

$200. 5br house built in 1904.
New windows, upgraded insulation, and high efficiency furnace go a long way!
Smaller houses I've lived in before without those upgrades have cost $500-700 in winter.

My uncle would often get the delicious "radiator ham" for Christmas dinner. I always pictured some guy crawling out from under the hood of a car, wiping his greasy hands on a shop rag and then going out back to check on his hams. The thought only adds to the experience.
