I knew it was coming but it still hurt to see it go.

For months after Matthew and Gwen were evicted from their charming Craftsman rental so that Hertz could extend its equipment storage lot, I would look to see if the house were still standing as I pedaled to work along the Burke-Gilman in the morning. It was always a kind of relief to see the pyramidal roof of the small square white house.

Well, today it was gone, and judging from the debris, it didn't look as
if everything which could have been salvaged was. Too bad.
