His mother went down to Fla. where Jack's sister lived , to look for a place , but Jack proceeded to purchase another house in Northport , this time at 49 Earl Avenue . Was in Northport over the weekend and found 49 Earl Avenue. Like the other houses it's pretty modest in equally modest surroundings. The crazy thing about the Earl Avenue house is that it's a stone's throw from the former Bali Hai location. The street runs directly behind it. It would take no more than 5 minutes to walk over there. Crazy! Sushiman, just out of curiosity how did you find that Kerouac lived at this address? [ Edited by: donhonyc 2008-05-18 20:41 ]
