Luminare Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) Sunset between Ashby and Cherokee. If it looks anything like that project does, who cares? So you are fine with having in your life smart phones, computers, tablets, all manner of machines, most likely contemporary furniture and even interiors, but the exterior of the building remains stuck a full century behind? Do you still use an Apple II, Is your car steam powered? Do you read by candle light? It's because of this warped dichotomy that I do care what it looks like.

jt16 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 So you are fine with having in your life smart phones, computers, tablets, all manner of machines, most likely contemporary furniture and even interiors, but the exterior of the building remains stuck a full century behind? Do you still use an Apple II, Is your car steam powered? Do you read by candle light? It's because of this warped dichotomy that I do care what it looks like. No need for the attack. Not everyone has to think like you. And you know what, you aren't always right. I kind of love going into an early 1920s Heights bungalow and finding modern interior design and technologies. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KinkaidAlum Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I live in an English tudor built in 1926 but with a crazy modern interior. I love it. Style isn't up to just you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 That is an incredible presentation, and a very nice and expensive looking place to live. I love the courtyard and the massing is nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 If the courtyard was a small private park with trees, it would look just like Tudor City in Manhattan. Dedicating that unique space entirely to garage access is such a waste; at least plant a few caged trees to shield the garage doors from back views. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmitch94 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Do many town homes that are four or five stories have elevators? I've lived on third floor walk ups for the past three years and any more then that would start to get real old, fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayjay Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 This project really grew on me a lot, looks really good now! I just wish that they would remove the fence that separates the front doors from the sidewalk, but that's minor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
