LONELY HOUSE

Here is a building in West Philadelphia that must have an interesting history.  It looks like a row house that lost it's row.  What happened to the rest of the block and how was this house spared?  It looks like the clouds are holding it in place here.  What does it feel like to live here? In spite of it's isolated position it has a cheery countenance and trimmed hedges, a fresh coat of paint and a neat, fenced in yard.
