I could say a lot, but I won't. Even though I hate the mansard roof, someone spent good money to live in St. Louis city and now calls this mansard home; for that reason I must show respect. Here's what I'd say to the homeowner at a hypothetical cocktail party:
"They mansard is a little awkward with the turret. I wish the foundation weren't poured concrete; it would be nice if it were masonry like the rest of Shaw. Wow- that's an interesting bay window."
The concrete bunker mansard to the left is a 2-family with an out of town landlord, so we'll be mansard snarky (word blend= mansnarky) on Flad later.
How have I missed this one??
ReplyDeleteI think it might actually be cover for a Minuteman Ballistic Missile Silo. At least that way i could appreciate it more.
ReplyDeleteI can barely articulate how much I hate this house. It even has lions on the front porch to make it look more "classy."
