Thursday Is "This Old House Day"


This single family house at 75 Russell Street in the Atlantic section of Quincy, was built in 1890.  There are lots of windows used in this house design which must allow some gorgeous light inside.  If you look down the driveway you will notice a side portico.  The columns used in the side entrance are similar to the ones on the front porch which makes me think that the portico is part of the original design.

or else a very thoughtful designer integrated the shape and style to tie the new work in with the old.
