these are cool. think i might get my digital camera and go take some pics like this. the small town where i live, is a bit modern. the old stuff was kinda tore down..but the surrounding areas, like north of me have historical places..

I love this old house. Missouri sure has it's share of beautiful architecture. I do miss that. There were several old homes in Fredericktown lost in the flood of '99. Sickening.

Austere, yet beautiful. I suppose, even stately woud work here. It wasn't poor people who had this home built. I love the side portico.

A more affordable, utilitarian home. I'd say upper middle class working white collar jobs. Broker, accountant.

This one screams I'm a lawyer, and I have a lot of kids and a lot of guests.

Wow I just love these victorian homes. Inside I bet is woodwork from the land itself I bet. I could imagine hardwood flooring inside and a spiral staircase.

We looked at a victorian home before we bought our home now. It had woodwork from the property incorporated through out, with berch, maple, oak. It had a coffin nook up the spiral wooden staircase. It had a servant quarters. It was just breath taking.
