House with Cape Cod roof, extended second story, and front porch. Pawtucket, Rhode Island. This home's second stor front walls break the Cape Cod roofline, which yet appears now as an interesting and effective decorative element. Was this original or a later addition? The front porch, part of which is now enclosed, has square-sectioned tapering columns found in many Providence and Pawtucket homes built around 1900. Photograph and text George P. Landow [You may use this image without prior permission for any scholarly or educational purpose as long as you (1) credit the photographer and (2) link your document to this URL in a web document or cite the Victorian Web in a print one.]
