Mystery History

 
Where are we? And what's happening?
 
The first person to guess correctly will win lunch with me -- I'll buy yours and you'll buy mine.
 
Remember, leave your brief guess as a comment on this blog but don't try to give the entire back story (that's my job).
 
I'll have the full scoop on Thursday.

  4. Gamble house construction. I know it's been said before, but I still hafta say it. Because it was in my brain as soon as I saw it.

  7. Gamble house built 1908 originally had both electric and gas lights cuz they weren't sure electricity would succeed. Should have bought stock!
