- Address gone
- today, by the City's records
In 1940
The directory lists the address as vacant.
Alma Street is read from the 1940 directory, street section and name section, line by line. The 1940 directory prints it as Alma Road; every number it gives sits on today's Alma Street, so we take them for one street (inferred).
The house today
The City's list of addresses no longer has 3180 Alma Street, so the building is probably gone (inferred); three doors along, 3150 still has one from before 1946, the only one on the block.
