3725 Samson was a street in a busy city. At first glance it looked like any other street. But this street was not like others. It was a place full of stories tucked into every crease, waiting for the right person — curious and brave — to come and learn.
The street was of some antiquity, stretching all the way back to the early 1900s. Samson, a generous man, was one of the first residents. He struggled and constructed a house where he lived with his family. The street was quiet then, with a few houses and few people.
As the city got larger and larger, more people were still coming into 3725 Samson. Shops began to open along the street. Some peddled bread, some clothes, and some toys. And people would come from all over the city to get what they needed. This special street was also home to immigrants who wished redemption in a new life.
One house on the street was particularly special. There lived a family that loved music. They were different from other families. They were such music lovers, that they held concerts on their back yard! What if you heard Louis Armstrong and other famous musicians performing next door? People would come from far and wide to listen. Today, the house is a museum where the music and the family that loved it so much lives on.
There were tunnels underneath the street that no one had ever heard about. Back when certain drinks were illegal, these tunnels shuttled substances around under the radar. The tunnels are closed now, but they are a reminder that streets have thrilling secrets.
Helen was a kind woman and also lived on this street. She was different from everyone else, because she loved animals more than anything. If she spotted a stray cat or dog, she would care for it. Her home became a sanctuary for animals in need. She battled hard, and helped to found an animal shelter that continues to help animals today.
Each street has a story and 3725 Samson has stories to tell. There are stories about music, stories about helping animals and stories about people who are working hard to build a good life. Somehow, this street taught us that every territory has its own inviting feature.
