For whatever reason, I thought I would mosey up Louisiana Avenue through Dutchtown on a bright and sunny Saturday recently.

Starting down south at Holly Hills, the houses are from the Twentieth Century.

And red brick like you see in the Nineteenth Century is rare.

You see tan, buff and brick, sometimes mixed together in one house.

And there’s even some dark brown, as well.

This is an interesting example of the Colonial Revival, with a very penetrating former window with the house’s gambrel roof turned parallel with the street wall.
