bruce price and dueling chimneys

BRUCE-PRICE_02

Once again, Price regulates the picturesque qualities of the Shingle Style on a strict module and with intense symmetry.  Two chimneys dominate the principal facade, which has a Richardsonian Syrian arch dead center, flanked with expansive glazing and shingled balconies on the sides, which top long portico-ed porches.  The symmetry only breaks at the entry facade, where a small porch sits next to the stair hall.
