This was my home in São Paulo, in about 1947. The street was not paved and there were fewer houses in the street and the neighborhood was very secluded. My father sold the house in about 1950.

ReplyDeleteWow...that's quite a change of scenery.
ReplyDeleteI think it look fantastic back when it was your childhood home. So sad that it's gone now.
ReplyDeleteOne wouldn't know it was the same place now.
ReplyDeleteTriste ver essas mudanças assim, pra muito pior,não? Dói ver! Pena! A modernidade ...bjs, chica obrigadão sempre!
ReplyDeleteI liked it so much better when it was your home. I am not a fan of change, I don't do change well :) Your header picture is awesome and there was probably some big change that went on there to get that skyline!
ReplyDeleteprogress-- I guess???
ReplyDeleteOh how cool.
ReplyDeleteThe best part of google street view, being able to take a look back without actually having to go there. I've looked up the apartment building I first lived in from 1952-1960 in a busy city in New Jersey. It's even busier now. A lot of people on the planet.
ReplyDeleteHello, what a difference. The tall buildings are popping up everywhere now. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think they call this progress....:)
ReplyDeleteI really like your house in 1947. Quite a different landscape now. The house I grew up in has been completely renovated, only half of one original wall is still standing, everything else is new.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a change. I bet that property would be worth some money now, being in the middle of a big city like that!
ReplyDeleteSo interesting to see your home in 1947, Sonia.
ReplyDeleteThe header photo is very nice!
Many greetings, happy weekend!
What a great transformation into a bustling city! Have a beautiful weekend. Sonia.
ReplyDeleteWow! That's amazing. What a history lesson. Truly. Xo
