Cityrag has some nice shots of Victorian Flatbush along with some commentary from someone who went on last week’s tour:

Most houses were built between 1900 1910, it had been farm land before that and was planned by two developers, who built the majority of the houses. Many families have restored the homes to their natural beauty with lots of detail. Victorian, Arts and Craft and Victorian Gothic just incredible! The tour offered about 30 houses open to the public, with a tour guide. I had an opportunity to speak to some of the owners, many of whom had bought their homes in the 70’s and 80’s for $50,000 – $80,000.

  1. First, “Blame” cityrag, brownstoner was just linking to another sites piece on the tour. 2nd, the piece is about the tour and Victorian Flatbush in general, so I think the picture is appropriate.
