Margaretta Avenue Between Cora and Marcus Avenues, Penrose

Backtracking to a street that makes it past Bradley Park, I settled on Margaretta Avenue to continue on my journey west through Penrose.

There’s those three houses above (and another further down) with the half lunettes in the cornices; the construction dates are listed as 1911, and while they and the house below have a sort of Italianate cornice, they are definitely not in that style.

What is interesting is how slow this block developed, with other houses, such as the one below, built in 1928.
