In 1940
The canvasser recorded the address as occupied but took no name, so no other section of the directory has one.
Keith Drive is read from the 1940 directory, street section and name section, line by line.
The house today
2620 Keith Drive still has a building from before 1946, as does 2621 across the street; its permit dates from 1909 and the City's record from 1910, so it is very likely the wood-frame building Goad's 1912 map draws on the lot (inferred). A permit to build a frame house was taken out in July 1909 by R P Latta: builder Millar & Hunter, $1,400.
