The real charm of 1018 East 7th is what lies behind the house. A stage-like quality sets the old structures apart with industrial fittings and varied surfaces. We recommend in situ performances while opportunity allows. Bring libations, costumes and lighting. Bring the house down.

The house as a site of conflict with a lingering quaintness. Walk back a few steps and ponder.

We enjoy the gabled doorway to virtually nowhere. Surrounded by multi-family dwellings, it has persisted with an address change- now 1018 East 7th Ave. Big Dick Rumi is a target or a supporter of recent developments.

Greg Girard took this shot, "Parked Car, Union Street, Vancouver" in 1981. The automobile and the house pairing was a strong theme among Vancouver's street photographers.
