My great-grandmother ran a boarding house on Lafayette Ave and it's still there. My mother and I went to see it in 1992. I was fascinated by the series on PBS "1900 House" about the family trying to live just as they did in a "middle class" house in London in 1900. I'm sure that it wasn't a whole lot different for those living in similar economic circumstances in US cities. Pat B in Virginia Beach VA
