🏡 Strolling the suburban-style "Luella A. Anderson" neighborhood, with Andy Sturdevant

The "Luella A. Anderson" development stands out to anyone who wanders the southern reaches of Longfellow, even if they don't know it by name. It's a place where the neatly-gridded, bungalow-lined streets are suddenly interrupted by curving roads of postwar homes, often architecturally ambitious, with attached garages and split levels. It's a bit of an eerie liminal pocket that leaves a visitor feeling like they've stepped through some sort of portal into a slightly different world — and, in the case of Luella's off-kilter street alignments, sometimes confused as to how to get out.
