Hotel d'Italie.

This should be 245 (later re-numbered 1115) St. Lawrence, on the east side just south of Dorchester, and now demolished.

Well finally something tangible.
Things are making sense now. Things are falling into place. I gotta get me a copy and learn more about KG and how and why he talks so much about my city.
Ill be in touch later.

It is a brilliant book. The information contained therein is remarkable. I keep a copy in my car - when I am in an area that I know Kristian wrote about - I will take out the book and locate the landmark then read all about it.
