36 Nisbet Street. Providence, Rhode Island. This home's essentially square footprint, lack of eaves, unusual dormer, and maner of incorporating the porch into the Cape Cod shape make this a fascinating and extremely modern intotnation of the style. The lack of projecting eaves and square shape transform a traditional New England groundplan into an interesting building dominated by starkly geometrical shape. Photograph and text George P.
