Many of the homes in this series have been rowhouses of some kind or another. I like how different parts of one structure get personalized with different paint colors or flowers. I also like how in a homebuying situation, one is making a commitment to share at least one wall of her home with someone who is most likely a stranger.
This week’s edition features a rowhouse that comes with a large front yard and is adjacent to a park. These, like a previous week’s edition, were designed by George Keller. (In writing this, I learned that what is now the Burns School used to be the Hartford Orphan Asylum!) Check out this website for a photo taken by someone lucky enough to find no cars parked out in front of the building. It’s a challenge to get photos that avoid power lines, air conditioners, cars, and political signs, all of which conspire to uglify pictures.
