Iowa Avenue Between Chippewa and Keokuk Streets

Heading south of Chippewa Avenue into Dutchtown, there are more of the standard four families and single family houses.

In particular, I liked the mixture of stock terracotta used to fill in the blind window above on the second floor.

Wood cornices are replaces with brick and metal.

      Ditto. As a teenager, I would see these streets and homes. Little did I know, that where I lived the bulk of my life, the home and streets could never equal or better St Louis.
