    Brattleboro, VT -- Peak Green Edition

    The church I went to as a very little kid I had not set foot in here for over 30 years And now back up to see downtown from the air Off to the forest near my old house to see the original Albany Post Road This is the only stretch in the area that survives fairly intact...

    Brattleboro, VT -- Peak Green Edition

    The hardware store (former Montgomery Ward) that has the exact same smell and creaky floors as it did 35 years ago The beloved Latchis Theatre, a true fantastical riot from 1938 Quite possibly the best farmers' market in the world Then I climbed Wantastiquet which I remember being...

    Brattleboro, VT -- Peak Green Edition

    The wife and I made a little weekend excursion to Brattleboro -- my childhood hometown from ages 1-7 -- two weeks back and once again I fell in love with the place all over. We stayed right in the heart of downtown (real mixed bag--more on that later) and wandered all over, including a hike up a...

    I said original cabinetry. The carpeting is clearly recent.

    The layers and the way it unfolds top to bottom is pretty stunning.

    kz's Wanderings Around Greater Boston

    The people demanded it and I'm here to supply. I'm averaging one unit a year here, and this one had all the original cabinetry. The realtor said these were original but I'm not sure I believe that... they look less like 1966 and more like 1976 or even early eighties to me

    OK I've never seen that Jack Baldwin car and I love it. Also I hear you... the Trans Am definitely takes a "more is more" approach, but I think they both pull off the swoopy fighter jet look very well. I would kill to see a Z28 in this red launch color. Ditto a Firebird that isn't a Trans Am...

    From that generation, or other generations? In the case of the 1980s 3rd gen I'd agree but otherwise I think it's a wash. That red Trans Am in particular still looks great by any measure, IMO.

    First the random sightings... I still think these 4th gen F bodies look fantastic E-type just cruising around Lexington, no big deal And then Cars and Coffee in my town of Bedford this past Sunday This '97 Camry had a TRD supercharger that was a dealer installed option that...

    (furiously googles..... pyrrhotite???) Well shit, this is the first I'm hearing about it and I'm measuring house basements for floor plans almost every day I work. I guess I can plead ignorance since most houses around here are much older than the period in question, but still I'm surprised I...

    Intriguing on a local level, but between this and the Surfside condo collapse of three years ago one has to wonder just how many of these neglected 1960s apartment/condo boxes all over the country are on the precipice. Lord knows these things are littered all over every town and neighborhood...

    NYC Architecture and Development

    Agreed that 50 West has a lot of little touches that add up to an above-average tower. Most glass towers are trying to be sleek but that one really pulls it off.
