Alexa Freyman put together a nice feature on The John Updike Childhood Home, 117 Philadelphia Ave., in Shillington, using shots from an expertly controlled drone. Even those who’ve seen the house in person will find the drone shots interesting for the way they contextualize the house in relation to its surroundings.
Freyman, born and raised in Berks County, started Berks Nostalgia “to research and build a collection of the places, things and stories I have heard about my entire life.”
