| 393-399 Eichenwald Street; Built: 1892; Style: Victorian rowhouse; Eichenwald Row -- By the early 1890s, all of the dramatic sites facings the city had been taken, and builders turned their attention to open lots in the vicinity of the mansions to build their up-scale projects. Eichenwald Row was the most elaborate serial housing venture in the bluff area. Created by local masterbuilder Andrew Hoban, it captured nearly every phase of the Queen Anne style, from the English Tudor of the gable facings, to the Early American of the porch columns, to the Richardsonian Romanesque of the broad arched stone and brickwork. |
