Mediterranean Revival, Lawn Ave

We headed back to Lawn Ave today to gaze at this Mediterranean Revival duplex. Lush details: matching chimneys, barrel tile roof exciting brickwork, glazed bricks, that amazing column, and the downspout embedded in the brick.
That's a pond between the steps and that egg and dart terra cotta piece looks newer.
Stained glass window above glazed white bricks, twisted column with a robust Corinthian capital, and in the background a ceramic kitten lifting a paw.
That's the original exposed aggregate concrete sidewalk with matching mosaic sidewalks to the street.
