Built in 1849-50, the historic Workers' Row House is a wooden tenement built to house immigrants, primarily from County Cork, Ireland, escaping that country's dire potato famine. The Row House has managed to survive almost 2 centuries of the ever-changing urban landscape of Detroit. 🇮🇪☘️ #Detroit #Westside #CorktownDetroit #WorkersRowHouse #Tenement #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_the_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatter #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Workers Row House Corktown Detroit) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp6Tgv0jBgi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Shared from @debbdebb101 . Black Point Estate and Gardens One of my favorite stories from our guided tour of this magnificent Victorian “cottage” involved the children of the household. When the kids were young, they all ate at the table on the back porch. When they turned 12 or so, each child was given a young goat to tend. If they could keep the goat healthy and fed and cleaned up after it for the entire summer, then they “earned their place” at the table- the big table in the grand dining room with all the adults. If the goat didn’t make it, then one more year eating on the porch with the other kids. (Er, children, not goats!) Hearing stories like this, and learning that one of the parents would play the song “Skedaddle!” when it was time for the kids to run up to bed, helped me better envision the real family that used to live here. . By the way, this house is still accessible only by boat. It must’ve been an enchanting place to grow up! . #travelwisconsin #lakegeneva #blackpointestate #queenanne #queenannevictorian #victorianhouse #victorianhome #archi_ologie #theamericanhome #oldhouselove #historichouse #houses_ofthe_world #total_houses #victorianarchitecture #iloveoldhouses #housesofinstagram #fx_hdr #joyful_pics #fav_squares #midwest_captures #hey_ihadtosnapthat #theamericanhome #ipulledoverforthat - #brickstory, #storyteller (at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2NXwj2g312/?igshid=1sqboizjjge4c

“Regrann from @perkinshouse of the Leamington Stewart House, a Queen Anne built in 1895. The home is based on Design No. 53 from George F. Barber’s “The Cottage Souvenir No. 2,” a pattern book/catalog originally published in 1891. One of the most successful domestic architects of the Victorian period, Barber’s plans were used for houses in all 50 U.S. states.”

🏡 🇺🇸📷 @drum679 The Coonley Estate was built between 1908-1912. It is located on a peninsula of the Des Plaines River. The estate is considered to be one of the most elaborate Frank Lloyd Wright designs. It is one of 3 multi-building complexes designed by Wright. It features Wright's mature Prarie style, the interior melds with the outdoors and features art glass, with interrelated buildings among sunken gardens. #midmodmondays #prariestyle #franklloydwright #architecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #houseportrait #beautifulhouseoldandnew #streets_and_houses #be_one_houses #houses_the_world #americanarchitecture #oldhousecharm #historichouse #theamericanhome #brickstory #houses_phototrip #casasecasarios #total_houses #fever_building #igbuildings #flwfriday #flw #riversideil #enjoyillinois #visitillinois #yesvisitoakpark #igerschicago #chiarchitecture http://bit.ly/2DYHPG2

Shared from @historicminnesota . The Laverty-Martindale House is known as the best example of the Italianate style in La Crosse. Thomas Laverty started building a house on the site in 1859 but was unable to finish it when he returned home disabled from serving in the Civil War. In 1868, Stephen Martindale purchased the house and completed it. More additions and alterations were made in 1884, and the home remained in the family until 1977. Just imagine all the land that surrounded this house when it was first built. It really has the feeling of an old farmhouse, and maybe that's why I love it so much. The yellow and white exterior helps too, as does that wrap around porch and huge cupola! . #chasingfacades #ipulledoverforthis #whynotwednesday #archi_ologie #theamericanhome #circaoldhouses #archilovers #oldhomesarethebesthomes #oldhouselove #oldhousestyle #iloveoldhouses #historichomes #italianate #instahomes #yellowhouse #architecturelover #curbappeal #frontporchfriday #fridaysfrontporch #wraparoundporch #lacrossewi #wisconsin #visitwisconsin #brickstory #thisoldhouse #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces .

A hallmark of Nettleton & Kahn's domestic work were the elaborately carved porticos, which can be found on several homes throughout the area. The Headley residence is my favorite of these designs. #Detroit #NorthEndDetroit #JacobeanRevival #RenaissanceRevival #EnglishArchitecture #AlbertKahn #GeorgeWNettleton #NettletonandKahn #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at North End) https://www.instagram.com/p/CosTpwsvN9O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

3914 Trumbull Avenue was built in 1890 for Abraham S. Kinney, a clothing patternmaker. It was designed by Almon C. Varney, one of Detroit's most prominent architects during the Victorian period.

2548 Field Street, located in the historic Islandview neighborhood, was built in 1907. It was designed by Peter Dederichs, a prolific local architect better known for his many church commissions during the late 19th/early 20th century. Colonial Revival with a turret?!
