In September 2006 my friend Blaize and I went over to Paris Avenue near our church gathering place and took photos of the dead trees lining the street. On the left you can see the eerie scene, straight out of a horror show. Empty. Dead. The city ripped up the trees several months later. Last month (July 2010) I went back to the same spot we took those original photos. The old Catholic church off to the right has been replaced by Holy Cross School. Behind me, Edgewater has rebuilt, and the elementary school is now a brand new technology high school.
