new house on Valley Place

this house at 1337 Valley Place SE is about halfway done. Built near the corner of Valley and Chester (there is still another vacant lot next door which abuts the intersection), it looks different than the string of brick homes to its right but will still hopefully fit in.


no windows on the side because another house will still someday go in next door

It's hard to tell at this stage how all the detailing will come together on the front, but it was approved through the Historic Preservation Review Board.



Personally, I'm pretty ecstatic that new homes are being built here. And this isn't the only one. For a neighborhood that still has never been fully developed (not even in its heydays), being around to see its completion is pretty cool.
