a truly delightful description of the baohaus abode from the mac website.
"On a quiet street just steps from 57th Street Beach and dotted with classic early 20th-century architecture, 5487 [that is, 5491]’s deep, red brick blends with its surroundings, yet its facade stands out: Stately, white Romanesque columns support balustrade-lined balconies, providing a sense of arrival and contrasting with the softly molded corner sunrooms anchoring both sides of the building."
to summarize: quiet, classic, early 20th-century, deep, red, stately, white, Romanesque, balustrade-lined, softly molded.
ha
to me the baohaus is not virginal or quiet but full, winding, loud, and seductively decrepit. mmm. but perhaps you have better words.
