Floating houses in Iquitos

Image by pierre pouliquin
Random visit
Houses are built on a balsa/raft, fishers,or just plain poor people’s houses. Here on shore, during the dry season (shot from the "malecon", city centre).
Maisons flotantes a Iquitos, photo prise du "malecon" (quai / promenade du centre ville). Maisons de pecheurs, ou simplement de gens n’ayant pas les moyens d’etre mieux loges; ici, durant la saison seche, les maisons (construites sur un radeau de balsa) restent "echouees" sur la rive.

W. N. Thomas House

Image by Universal Pops (mostly inactive)
The W. N. Thomas home is a 1926 Colonial Revival house in Oxford, North Carolina. It was built by Dr. Thomas, a local surgeon and president of the Brantwood Hospital. The entry had an elliptical fanlight and rectangular sidelights. It is fronted by a small portico, which is capped by a small balustrade. A side porch supported by columns has a iron balustrade above. The symmetrical dormers are broken triangular pediments. On the uppermost portion of the sides are Palladian windows. There are modillion blocks at the cornice. The structure has undergone very few changes since 1926 except for some addition to the rear.
It’s in the Oxford Historical District and is on College Street. National Register of Historic Places #88000403 (added 1988)

A charmin place in Borisova gradina (Boris’s garden) – the biggest park in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia.
if you are living in Sofia and seeing for first time this "house", you have to see it with your own eyes. Check the photo map for the right location.

Mound-House in Altenrhein

Image by Kecko
In Switzerland it’s called generally as an earth-house and I had already photographed it once three years ago. A unique architectonic style in close touch with nature that reminds a little bit to southern climes. Switzerland, Mar 22, 2009.
See where this picture was taken. [?]

Row houses, Lafayette Square, St. Louis

Image by StevenM_61
A couple of fine Victorian row houses that face Lafayette Park in St. Louis’ Lafayette Square, a well-preserved Victorian neighborhood southwest of downtown. The house on right has probably been long sold since this photo was taken in 1995.

A House in Mid-City

Image by Editor B
Wow. Just wow. I’m not sure this picture fully captures the beatdown, ramshackle, dilapidated look of this poor old house. It literally stopped me in my tracks when I rode past on my bike. This is in my neighborhood, but I’d never seen it before.
I didn’t talk to any of the immediate neighbors, but I’ve got a suspicion that they’d say it looked pretty much the same before Katrina.
What’s up with the big star in front?
