*Clears throat* You’ll have to excuse me – I’m a tour guide in the city of Boston.

Next to Copp’s Hill Burying Ground, this house is “The Thinnest House in Boston” – Being 10 feet wide in the front, and 3 1/2 feet wide in the back, 33 feet long. It was built by Joseph Eustus, who went away to war. His brother built a mansion on the family estate, and left his brother the small slice of land.

Out of spite, Joseph built the house that you see basically to PO his brother and block the view of the harbor.

The mansion burned down, and that house still stands.

… The more you know *ding*

@SouthernOracle…and whoever else cares: Yes, it’s in Boston. It’s called a “spite house” because it was built for the purpose of being a dick to the neighbors, back when the houses currently nearby weren’t there. Look up “spite house” on Wikipedia and it has several examples.

Is the title supposed to be obvious or oblivious?

That station wagon is longer than the house is wide.

Isn’t that in Boston? I think I have a picture of an suv parked in front that was longer than the house is wide.

Moving in and out must be a b*tch, seeing how narrow the alley is.
