  What's amazing is that the street lamp is really the only thing that indicates this photo was not taken today, almost a century later.

  17th Street and Irving place. Still standing. You can see it in street view on Google Maps: maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&time=...

  Some renovation done to the bldg. about five yrs. ago changed the front window.

• Ken Albers said:

  It does appear there have been some changes. It seems that the chimney might be gone now, though I guess that might be a function of the angle from which the newer photo was shot.

  Appears to have been a captain at the time of this portrait.

  He ended up a Brigadier General (USMC) www.arlingtoncemetery.net/feevans.htm Would appear to have a Sumner Class Destroyer (WWII era) named after him too.

• Arden said:
