So, SUBUD in New Orleans did NOT die with Bapak ... I was opened during the "wild" period of the late 1960s, while a graduate student at Stanford University. I re-married three years ago and moved here from Falls Church, VA. My wife's home has been in Gretna for more than half her life — and we are well up in our eighties. My nearest family are grandchildren in Nashville, TN. Best regards and blessings to you and your family, Doug! Ernest Greetings to you, Doug!

I've also added the story as a page of its own under Alameda Stories. But the collection that the photos is from is indeed called the Frank L. Moore collection. Checked to be sure. Named for the head of the church at the time the building was dedicated. The story reports he was there at the opening. Thanks for the LouIsiana catch, which I’ve fixed.

We moved right across the street from the church 3 years ago from New Orleans and are happy to know the history of the building. One suggestion to fix the page a little: The credits to the old photographs at the end of your story have a few mistakes: “Louisiana” is missing its first letter “I”. Also the photographer is “Frank B. Moore”, not “Frank L. Moore”. I don’t mean too sound picky, I only noticed the Louisiana spelling error as we are from there. Perhaps next time you get to web site updates…. Amazingly Frank Moore took pictures right in front of my old house in New Orleans. The odds must be one in billions he would have been in front of my current one in Portland! Hi,

Thanks for dropping by for a look at the blog. I appreciate your encouragement. You know what would be cool...if you could interview some of your older neighbors who still think of you as a newcomer and capture their stories and memories of life in the neighborhood. I'd be glad to share with you a template list of questions that I've assembled over time for oral histories. Never know what we might learn. Regarding OHS: there is very little information there relating specifically to Alameda. Three or four photos in the neighborhood file and a handful of shots of specific houses in the neighborhood. All of the information I'm gathering--from building permits to old newspaper articles to oral histories--will be headed there eventually. Let me know if you'd like to talk about oral histories (maybe I'll do a post on this too). Doug Hi Mark. Thanks for dropping by for a look at the blog. I appreciate your encouragement.

I appreciate your research. I am a 20+ year Alameda resident (still a newcomer according to my neighbors), so I really enjoy learning more about the history of our neighborhood. Please let me know if I can be of any help. I have been meaning to visit the Oregon Historical Society library for many years…

Your neighbors are very lucky to have you excavating through the layers to find the stories. This is a fantastic piece.
