I didn't get to see this one when I was in Manhattan but my absolute favorite just because of the setback. Interiors are very fine too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat! I had not seen this view when it still had the shutters. I had a field office in the "double wide" across the street 1987-89 during that house's renovation.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what that is being suspended over the leftmost dormer...
ReplyDeleteWhat an odd but appealing little duck this house is. Love it.
