In the past I’ve shared some of my own images of Leavenworth’s tourist-friendly Front Street; I’ve also written a bit about the town’s history. But today I have a few pictures of the residential areas — at least as they existed back in May 1976. I’m sure that some of these buildings are no longer standing, especially the small house where my mom spent part of her childhood. On this particular trip, my mom was able to spend some time visiting familiar places and old family friends.
