Dayton's Bluff Neighborhood

Greenbrier Street

627 and 626 North Greenbrier Street Built: ca. 1880 Style: Eastlake Looking south down Greenbrier you can see two fine examples of elaborate portico and gable carvings. These two houses demonstrate the importance the Victorian era put on front porch entries.

Comment: The addresses are 627 and 629 Greenbrier

Comment: The green house on the right was owned and partly re-habbed by an engineer employed at 3M. The mechanicals have been updated beyond standard to excellence, and the wood floors, instead of merely being refinished, were replaced with 1" oak! That's 1" thick, not wide.
