Four houses on Stanton Avenue, which is the line that separates Highland Park from East Liberty. First, two that obviously go together, though they differ in a few details.

Here is a house we might describe as center-hall-Colonial-Baroque.

Dormer

The Baroque details of the central dormer need a bit of restoration. We hope they can be repaired rather than simply replaced with simpler wood (or aluminum or vinyl).

Finally, a house that is more than twenty years younger than its neighbors; the lot was still vacant in 1923, according to plat maps.
