Rooflines of Maple Leaf

 

8/30/24 Maple Leaf neighborhood (The Dutch Colonial at upper right was especially challenging to draw! The owners have uprgraded with solar panels.)

9/5/24 What's up with the skinny windows on the upper floor?
As an urban sketcher, I’m not necessarily attracted to drawing buildings, but every now and then I get in the mood to take my walks with an eye to the ever-changing neighborhood landscape. One of many things I love and appreciate about Maple Leaf is all the traditional architecture of homes that have been standing for a century (like our house, built in 1925). Some newer homes and additions have at least attempted to fit into the neighborhood; others have not.
