Spite House The Spite House is still there, but a bit further south (up
the hill) than I
had remembered. The proper cross street is Newton, not Louisa. Secondly, the
hedge around the south end has grown a LOT taller over the past decade. In
fact
you can no longer see the (very) narrow south end of the house from the
street.
When I took my photographs I had to back into the alley on the south side. A
real shame. On the plus side, the building has been very well maintained, and
looks like it will be standing for a good while longer yet. [Mark Lockwood, 10/10/2000]
From the front the Spite House looks perfectly ordinary, if a little old- fashioned (pink stucco, spanish-tiled roof). It's the side dimensions that make it unique. The north end is only ten feet wide, the south, only five. [Mark Lockwood, 09/07/2000]
