Architectural details & original record
READ THE ARCHITECTURE
What sets this group apart.
LPC recorded six Root and Rust houses rising three stories over basements on approximately 16-foot lots. Plain lintels and sills give them a more restrained character than the stone-fronted rows.
Brick façades
Repeated brick fronts contrast with the nearby stone rows.
Narrow proportions
LPC recorded lots approximately 16 feet wide. A current survey and measured plans establish each property’s dimensions.
