1888 Time Collage, 87 Norfolk Ave.

Taken Saturday, August 8th, 2015 from 7:25-7:46PM. Found and © by Mike Ritter.

Norfolk Ave. intersects with Gerard St. in the distance and runs parallel to Mass Ave through an old industrial area of Roxbury. A city dump is just up Gerard St. on the left from this vantage point. There aren’t many pedestrians or much traffic here. I was surprised to learn that the menacing guard dog who occasionally chased me along the fence of the junkyard as I biked by late at night between my South End studio and Dorchester home, was actually white faced and arthritic.
