About the work

A closer look.

Send me a place: the name you know it by, the address it used, and anything you remember about the door. I run four layers on it. (1) The listing state: what it files itself as, whether the record has moved since the shop stopped. (2) Photo authorship: whose hand took the pictures, checked against the account that owns the place. (3) The camera layer: the newest street-level pass on that block, pulled at the road line and again at the pin, with the pass dated. (4) The owner's own hand: whether anything from this month proves someone is still home. You get a written verdict with the images and links I used, the newest pass date, and the layers that disagree with each other. If the door is gone, I say so plainly and show you what the street says now. 48 hours. One revision if I got a fact wrong. I do not visit in person: this is a records and camera check, and anything I cannot check gets named, not guessed.
