Continuing around Hyde Park, I headed down Angelrodt Street east of Twentieth Street, which I looked at back in January of 2018. I first spotted this house, which is rapidly losing its vinyl siding.

I’ve always been fascinated by these little houses, built a half century or more after Hyde Park was already a bustling neighborhood.

They’re on the south side of the neighborhood, sort of in this transitional area just to the north of Old North St. Louis.

When I first looked at these houses, they were all occupied (I know I photographed them, too) but they have slowly gone vacant.

At this point we reach Nineteenth Street and the numbering jumps to the 1500 block.

I also looked at this block back in January of 2018.

I was surprised to find one house clearly showing the results of a massive rebuilding, but it looks like it stalled.

It will be interesting to see what happens long term.

Towards the end of the block, the architecture changes to what might be called more traditional Hyde Park style.

We then reach Blair Avenue, where I walked north back in January of 2018.
