The residents were very nice, a high percentage of them retired teachers. From what I've heard it started out as a rather high class apartment building before converting into a retirement condo. In this picture you can just see the Lolita immediately to the east, a charming three story plus basement apartment building where I lived for about a year in the Seventies. It was removed when Horizon House expanded in the Eighties, more than doubling it's size. I worked at Horizon House for several years, starting about ten years after this card was sent.

You still find hotels that give away postcards of their specific building on them. This is one of them. Oh, sure, that has to be it.

I can't imagine many of these would have been bought by the general public. Bizarre, but I suppose those were custom-produced for distribution by Horizon House itself to its residents?
