Re: You are so right. Those tiny houses are becoming a real thing.
They are cost affective and affordable, so why not?

Today they would be applauded for living in a Tiny house. I do hope that it was peaceful in their wee floating home.

Re: We saw a bunch of them up at Presque Isle earlier this year.
People were living in them. Maybe it is a Pennsylvania thing.

It's been a while since I have seen a houseboat, the 1970s type. I guess the trend moved away from them.

Re: Thank you. Living on the river, we have seen them float by....
Every summer, there is a group of them that passes by our docks.

Re: The bicycle is possibly their onshore transportation to work.
Pittsburgh is known for bicycling. I am not so sure that it would have been at the turn of the century though.

What a fascinating post. I'm going to go back and study it somemore and I am also going to send the site to my Sis who will also love it. In the photo that you showed on your post, I love the bicycles on the roof.
