However, you still have to be a civilian, right? We are not all children and we must learn to let go when one of us is bad. For some people revenge is something they should have. This is the case for this particular story.
Have you ever been to Alexandria, Virginia? If you have ever visited this town, you may have witnessed an act of revenge for a man. If you’ve seen a little blue house crammed between a big red house and a big white house, you might know what we’re talking about. You still had to take a good look!
The house in question was named the narrowest house in the United States by Ripley’s Believe It or Not. That’s because this two-story house is only 7 feet wide and 25 feet deep. It’s small compared to a normal sized house in America.
It is also known as the “House of Challenge” in Alexandria. There is a good story regarding the reason for this name.
John Hollinsbury built the little house in 1830 to keep moccasins and horse-drawn carriages away. He didn’t want them going up and down the very narrow hallway. You can even see inside the house where the wheels of the wagon have left imprints on the walls.
Colin and Jack Samis are the current owners of the little house. They bought it in 1990 and use it as a road.
