Lemay Houses

All the way out in Lemay one hundred years ago, they were building houses that looked just like their counterparts in the city. I love the optimism of their belief that the city would soon be out that far.

  1. Ya Lemay is pretty much the city in the county. A lot of history around there. My parents house is actually a wood frame structure built in 1900 by my family with a connected grocery store front that still exists I might add. The family business was quite lucrative until it was bought out and driven into the ground by the greedy new owner...not to mention the inevitable fate from the supermarket boom.
