Mystery house in El Rosario


OK, let me do this a different way. I deleted the previous, and I'll ask the question: Did this house ever get completed? It was on the north side of road, real close to the road, at the time, on the far eastern outskirts of El Rosario in the '90s. Cathy and I have "sort of" looked for it, and haven't felt we've seen it.

The Google Earth Street View shows it (2008 image), boarded up and looking pretty dismal. It is directly across from Baja's Best Seafood.

Good job BB! I don't know how I've missed it. I think I was looking too far out of town. I use street view all the time. Cool tool.
