There are at least two iterations of the house at 1 Aberdeen St. First is the gracious Edwardian-era brick three-storey at the corner of Earl Street, spitting distance from the Athletics and Recreation Centre. The second resides firmly in the memories of Kathy Scales (Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션78) and the roommates she shared it with 45 years ago.
The latter has an ample side porch on the main floor and a sunroom on the right side of the second-floor balcony. You can see the ghosts of both features if you look closely at the building today.
The porch off the kitchen was a gathering place in good weather for the six young women who spent a year there in the mid-카지노 게임 컬렉션70s, as were 1 Aberdeen카지노 게임 컬렉션s balcony and its front veranda. The porch was a place to plug in Martha Scandrett카지노 게임 컬렉션s (ArtSci카지노 게임 컬렉션77) eight-track and play Fleetwood Mac and Boz Scaggs, entertaining the roommates and whoever ambled by.
Lots of people ambled by 1 Aberdeen; its proximity to campus meant friends were always nearby.

카지노 게임 컬렉션I don카지노 게임 컬렉션t remember having any crazy parties,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Ms. Scales. 카지노 게임 컬렉션We were more of a drop-in and chill place. It was really casual카지노 게임 컬렉션 just a really great drop-in, sit-on-the-front-porch, sit-on-the-side-porch, come-into-the-kitchen, have-a-drink, have-dinner [kind of place].카지노 게임 컬렉션
In contrast to many student houses, the main floor was all common space, Ms. Scales remembers. There was a spacious living/dining room with an ornate mirror dominating one wall, a bathroom, and a big kitchen.
카지노 게임 컬렉션We had a table that easily sat six, and often sat eight or nine,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Ms. Scales.
The three bedrooms on each of the top two floors varied greatly in size, says Ms. Scales. Her second-floor room was as big as the living room below it, but Shelagh McDonald Drury (Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션78) was left with a third-floor garret not much bigger than her bed. In compensation, Ms. Drury was given the second-floor sunroom as a study space.
The roomies, transitioning from two years at Victoria Hall, were thrilled with 1 Aberdeen, all the more because it rescued them from what might have been a disastrous year at another property. The previous spring, they had signed a lease on a smaller Earl Street house, wilfully ignoring the fact that there were no electrical outlets on the second floor and the tiny kitchen was painted an alarming shade of red.
카지노 게임 컬렉션It looked like a murder scene out of a Stephen King novel,카지노 게임 컬렉션 recalls Ms. Scales.
After 1 Aberdeen became available that summer, the Earl Street house was conveniently named a fire hazard − a call to the fire marshal is neither confirmed nor denied − which voided their lease.
Life at 1 Aberdeen was not entirely without adversity, Ms. Scales admits. The winter of 1977 broke records, first for a historic blizzard that slammed Southern Ontario in January, and then for an extended cold snap. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I think I had bronchitis all winter,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Janet Tate (Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션78) recalls. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Great memories.카지노 게임 컬렉션
The roomies came back from their Christmas break to a $300 oil heating bill, says Ms. Scales, at a time when the weekly grocery bill for all six tenants was $60.
But it was still a great house, says Ms. Scales. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Unfortunately, it was such a great house, and a great location, that it was purchased the following year by someone카지노 게임 컬렉션s parents for their own kids, so we only got to live [there] for one awesome year.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Ms. Scales and some of her roomies found another house on Mack Street for their final year, but it wasn카지노 게임 컬렉션t same. Their best memories, she says, are all associated with 1 Aberdeen. 카지노 게임 컬렉션We had such a great time there; it was a wonderful time of life.카지노 게임 컬렉션
