March 22, 2008Last year, I was proud to discover that the whitebread Denver suburb I grew up in had once been the actual home of none other than Jack Kerouac. It seems others in the area are proud of him as well -- proud enough to slap his name on a loft development. Here's a sample from the description: The exterior of the building is designed to echo the industrial character of the area, providing a unique home for the adventurous in spirit. The Jack Kerouac Lofts will convey the impression of an industrial building adapted for human habitation, set in a conveniently located and rapidly evolving new neighborhood. In real-estate speak, I think that means that the neighborhood might still be dangerous enough that Jack would feel at home there. (Thanks to Michael Hamtil for the tip.)
