Cool House in Brookland
I always drive by this one house in my neighborhood of Brookland, in NE Washington DC. It may be a music studio or house with just band mates, but it looks pretty right on. Usually I don’t tend to like new fangled houses in the neighborhood, since Brookland has a lot of early 20th century architecture including a lot of Victorians. Plus the DC area is know for knocking down cool old houses for new ugly McMansions ( Arlington and Cabin John I am talking about you. )
However I don’t mind this house, the architecture is tasteful and cool. It does seem to be a bit out place but does add some nice variety to the Neighborhood.
Hopefully will the all the new development that they are planning in the area, the developers will take pointers from these guys and build something that works for the neighborhood.
Another blogger in the neighbor have a nice write up on it as well.
