Hey Friends! I’m back in school (this was my first week back which, if you've been to college, you know what a stupid hullaballoo the first week of school is), which means a new schedule is in order!

Jackson continues to do an excellent job with his essays on rowhouses for the Looking Around series. I found this one particularly useful as someone who lives in a city of rowhouses (I currently am writing this in an apartment in an early 20th century rowhouse!)

Hello friends! I just realized I didn't post a good house of the week for this week's McMansion. Sorry for the late post.
This is a first for GHOTW in that this house hasn't even been built yet! I'll be honest, it took a lot of work to find a half-way decent house in a place like Las Vegas, where speculation was so heavy...

Folks, it's extremely rare to see a well done imitation of the Prairie style, especially done by a builder, but even I have to admit this 1994 house is stunning. The interiors are immaculately dressed with Frank Lloyd Wright furnishings, and as a bonus, the house is actually located in the Prairie!
The materials of this ...

Hey Friends! I'm currently in Europe and have limited internet, but have no fear - there will be two Looking Around guest posts. One will be tonight or tomorrow and the other will be next Saturday. I apologize for the delays! Please enjoy this picture of adorable and perfect Swiss chateaus as compensation.
Good House of the Week: Montana
This week's house is actually in the adjacent county (but not too far from this week's McMansion). It demonstrates that a good house can be a reasonable, everyday house - including an attached garage.
While I may not be particularly enthusiastic about the garage door choice, I do believe the garage is well-integrated int...

Hello Patrons! Today I'm introducing a new $10 reward to replace the stickers. Not only were the stickers difficult to manage, but more importantly the local print shop where I've been getting them made has closed, making the stickers more difficult and expensive to produce. The remaining stickers will be sent out by the end of ...

I'm going to be up front with you: there are two things I don't like about this house. One is, of course, the shutters. The other is the brick veneer which I find unnecessary as it clashes with rather than compliments those amazing wood shingles. Limiting the house to (what I assume is) fibre cement siding and wood shingles woul...

Good House of the Week: Mississippi
Hello Friends! I'd already chosen this 2015 house as the Good House of the Week when I was searching for McMansions in a different county. This is such a lovely example of doing historical styles right, that I had to use it even if it's not in the same county as this week's McMansion.
The style of this house is what is c...

Friends, my cat Maurice is really sick. I've been at the vet all day - I don't think today's post is going to be on time. I'll have it up tomorrow.
Thanks for your understanding.
