There are actually quite a large number of detatched houses in both Baltimore and DC, but you have to get outside of the core to find them. Philly, on the other hand, has very few detatched houses. New York has large numbers of most types of housing. Boston and Pittsburgh have significant rowhousing, but these are outnumbered by other types.

Great photos. You really covered the city, we don't get to see many undetached homes.

What is the construction site shown in one of the photos? It was downtown, showing a fenced in area and a rendering of the building under construction. The rendering was really not discernable.

That's a very nice photo collection. Well done!

Some of the photos are a year or two old. If it's the photograph under the Hippodrome and above the Bromo Seltzer Tower pictures you make reference to, that's the Able building which is being converted to residential. It's across from the Hippodrome on Eutaw Street at Fayette Street. That photo is relatively new.

There is also a fenced in site below the "Club Pussycat" photo. That site is now a parking lot. In fact, it's where they are thinking about putting a new state courthouse when they replace the Mitchell building.

The fence in that picture is up because they had just finished demolition of the structures that were there. I think they did that last year. Today, there is a wrought iron fence surrounding the lot and it is landscapped. It's open for public parking. I just walked by it on Sunday.
