#Heritage is a #resource. Just imagine what this romantic listed manor could offer its community. Built in the late 19th century by a Romanian boyar with a taste for French architecture, it still stands #abandoned, even after strong efforts from civil society. But a recent change of owners might offer new chances to this old gem

A #mansardmonday happy update! Posted @withrepost • @firstspell I’ve been saved! A happy #mansardmonday and #deserve2preserve update on the Dr. James Ferguson Office. What a difference! Last I read in the newspaper when restoration is complete it might be a little rental residence! The office was built around 1870 and is 627 sq feet. So glad there’s a happy ending for the plight of this mini #mansard ! #glensfalls #archi_ologie #oldhouse #oldhouselove #thisplacematters #oldhousepeople #secondempire #secondempirearchitecture #preservation #historicpreservation #minihouses #adirondacks @adkarch #minimansard

What’s up with Mother Nature’s mood swings?! Here’s some Monday morning sunshine☀️ after the weekends bitter wild winds...though it did encourage a comfort food cooking frenzy, black bean soup with Easter’s ham bone from the freezer and a beef stew...so we’re set for a few day’s☀️
>>
Hope your Monday’s off to a good start

If you're feeling at a loss after Notre Dame, consider getting involved with helping preserve the treasures in your own backyard. The Hammer/Palmer Mansion in Bronzeville is a 19th century beauty rich with local black history, and it's in need of serious aid. Groups like @preservationchicago and @landmarksillinois can always use help to save important places like these.

Last year I posted the home of Beverly Davenport, located at 302 E. Henry in quaint Saline. Now, here is Daddy Davenport's (William H. Davenport) monumental Second Empire mansion at 300 East Michigan Avenue, built in 1875. The carriage houses aren't too shabby either. The senior Davenport (1826 - 1909) rose from store clerk to one of Saline's most prominent businessmen, dealing in mercantile, banking and other arenas. He was also a devoted member of the community, instrumental in Saline getting a railroad as well as a fire department, after a fire destroyed a portion of town.
Mr. Davenport commissioned William Scott of Detroit to design the impressive home shown here. It was built at a cost of approximately $8500. William Scott was the father of John & Arthur Scott, prominent architects in their own right, responsible for the landmark Wayne County Building as well as many fine residences in and around Detroit. Mr. Davenport and his wife, Zylpha, traveled to Philadelphia for the 1876 Centennial Exposition, purchasing many of the furnishings for their home.
In 1881, the Davenports had their residence connected to Mr. Davenport's downtown store via telephone, making them the first in Saline to take advantage of the still relatively new technology in this manner. The mansion remained in the Davenport family until 1930, when Beverly Davenport passed away. It was inherited by Carl Curtiss, a family friend who worked for Citizens Bank. The home is also known as the Davenport-Curtiss House. #SalineMI #WashtenawCounty #SecondEmpire #VictorianArchitecture #MichiganAvenue #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #MansardMonday #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #VisitSaline #ThisPlaceMatters #MichiganPlacesMatter #GalaxyS10 #withGalaxy
Circa 1880, The Molly Brown House is located in Denver, CO this was the home of American philanthropist, socialite, and activist Margaret Brown. Brown was known as "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" because she survived the sinking of the RMS Titanic.
