History Mystery Homes

     The "History Mystery" continues! Last week the "History Mystery" series was introduced with two photos of homes circa 1925. One was identified by the author immediately as the Castronovo home and the other, "Hoest 04" needs help being solved as to where it is. Thanks to readers for suggesting their thoughts, but so far, none are the correct home address.

     A volunteer at the Garden City Public Library needs the information to properly digitize these archive photos. Another home is on the list for this week as well. It is entitled, "Hoest 05." It is also a stucco home, similar to "Hoest 04." Please look at "Hoest 04" and "05" carefully and see if you can recognize these homes.

     Please contact Suzie Alvey at 516.326.1720 or suziealvey@gmail.com. (Keep in mind that over the years porches might have been removed, wings added and other changes may have been made to the original home.) When identified, Alvey will take a current photo and the correct address will be posted in this publication.

     Next week we will feature another unidentified home from circa 1925. Help us help history!
