Station-master's residence and service tracks in Vaasa (Vasa)

from The Society of Swedish Literature in Finland

    Stinsens (stationsinspektorns) residens i Stationsparken i Vasa. Husets adress är Semaforsgränden 2. Det var en smal, kort genväg, som började vid Bommen, det vill säga där bommen vid järnvägsövergången gick ner tvärs över Storalånggatan. I dag heter den officiellt Semaforsgränden (språkriktigare Semaforgränden). Till höger järnvägsspåret till och del av fasaden tid en tågverkstad och ratamestarin konttori (vet ej svenska översättningen).

    Ser ut att vara från Vasa skärgård. Kan det vara Nämdis gård i Replot.? Säng som hade VINKELHYLLA (kärilshylla i vinkel) och TVÅ skåp var sällsynt. Cit. ur mamma Marita Westergårds arkiv; "Nämdis i Replot...Indersängen har vinkelhylla och två skåp... byggdes av Jonas Löfdahl (Björkösnickaren Lihlt Jåon) 1883" Han hade också snickrat Nämdis vinkelskåp och "laangbänk".
  • The Society of Swedish Literature in Finland said:
    Mona Britwin Stort tack för kommentar och citat!
  • Rune Svenfelt said:
    Mycket riktigt denna bild är från Nämndis gård i replot. Årtalet 1883 skall även vara det år huset är byggt.

    Rune Svenfelt Tack!

    This is my grandmother's house that she was born in. Her name was Hilma and she was one of 16 siblings. I visited this house in June of the year. It had been in the family until just recently when it was sold to another family who are restoring it to its original state. So great to find this old picture.
