We’ve been a long-time (okay, maybe like two years) admirer of this positively suburban looking Georgian brick house at 234 Eighth Avenue. There are some quite similar ones on the other side of the park in PLG–in fact, we considered buying a decrepit one back when we were house-hunting in 2004. It looks like the same person has owned this place for the past 12 years with no significant alterations done in that time. Thank God it’s in a landmarked district, as the house has the kind of unused FAR that gets developers drooling. The design doesn’t make the cut in the AIA Guide, but we feel pretty sure there’s some history behind this one. worth knowing. GMAP P*Shark
