I loved the carriage house on 4th Street as well — it was the most
livable house to me — so airy and bright and spacious! Absolutely
amazing to give that kind of a feeling in a long building with almost
no exterior windows.

My other favorite thing from the tour was the modern kitchen with
the glass corner window and built in round cabinets/eating area – was
that in the 3rd Street house? The upstairs bathroom in that house, with
a glass walled shower and stone tiles on the walls and ceiling as well
as the floor, was also gorgeous.

The traditional Victorians were stunning but not to my taste — and
so far out of my league as to make them seem like museums. In fact, the
house owned by Greenwood Cemetary and lived in by its president DID
seem like a museum to me, what with all the art crowding the walls. It
seemed a little corporate to me, I’m not sure why. Maybe it was just
too formal for me. What did others think of that one?
