Crossing Miami on Tennessee, we see one of those classic St. Louis apartment buildings that is really just a series of four-families built contiguous to each other.

I love these houses where they used white glazed brick to mimic ashlar stone.

This house below looks perfect for a transplant from Baltimore, the land of Permastone.

And what I call the Working Person’s Mansion, those wonderful three bay wide, one story houses that we see south of Gravois are also tucked away but not in as great of numbers as in Dutchtown.

Don’t paint your brick.

I love how the old Christian Scientist church looms through the backyards at the corner of Arkansas and Gravois.

Then we arrive at Potomac Street.

And turn around and head back south, looking at the east side of the street.

There are several four-families, whose ornament consist of tan bricks as opposed to wood or tin cornices.

I really enjoyed these three tracts homes in a row.

This four-family lost its cornice, which was probably tin and prefabricated during the winter, ready to be installed when the building season began in the spring.
