AND THE WINNER IS

When we lived on Warren Avenue in Boston, we had two parking spaces behind the house and would let friends or neighbors use the second one if it was available which was most of the time. This is not the first time in our lives when we had just one automobile.

Now, we realize, we were sitting on a mushroom! Which has gotten bigger and bigger.

This at an IRS auction this week:

Two Boston Parking Spots sell for 560,000

But Commonwealth Avenue is a bit higher in price, to say the least or most, than Warren 6 blocks away.

Location. Location.

Imagine. This woman needs five spots! For friends and workpeople.

This is a new level of wealth in a world that can hardly be imagined.

When we lived on the back of Beacon Hill, around 1988, we used an old beat up garage down the street two blocks.

I don't remember what we paid which wasn't too bad.

I can remember the shock when we found that a newly built garage just off Charles Street went for, as I remember, $85,000.

This is now, that was then, and this is CommAve.
