This buildings most distinctive feature is the Mansard roof, where a low pitched roof terminates in a broad, sweeping, almost vertical roof often punctuated with dormers. Large, elongated windows with curved tops also appear in this style]]> 2019-03-15 21:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341936982 abwest https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939409 2019-03-15 21:36:23 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939409 abwest https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939454 2019-03-15 21:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939454 abwest https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939566 2019-03-15 21:37:34 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939566 abwest https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939646 This house, on the north side of Carondelet Park in St. Louis, was built in a Spanish Revival style.

I noticed much more now in my 30's than I ever did or could fully appreciate in my teens and early 20's. There is a ton of really beautiful French influenced architecture in the city, especially near Lafayette Square. The city is named after a french saint, after all! I also included a couple of Spanish influenced architecture from both St. Louis and Parker, CO (near where I live now).]]> 2019-03-15 21:39:43 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341939838 abwest https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341941438 2019-03-15 21:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/abwest/ulho4lyu7wg8/wish/341941438
