Bodacious Terra Cotta

I wish somebody would turn on the lights outside.
The winter gloam is way past tedious so I'm roving neighborhoods and fortunately encountered this building in Princeton Heights. Stellar brickwork. Bodacious terra cotta that resonates with Arts and Crafts motifs.





Click to enlarge. These bricks are the first I've encounter that have flecks of feldspar to compliment the mortar.

Spendid glazed terra cotta

Wowsa:

Located (I think, I've misplaced my notes) in the Princeton Heights neighborhood.
Dreamy Art Deco styling terra cotta with wire cut brick and stained pick mortar.




Too bad the original store front windows were 'remodeled'.

Black brick with red trim house

This is the first house I've encountered made of black brick. It's in the Princeton Heights neighborhood just east of Hampton.

An Art Deco Haven



Not a corner but a curve.



OK, the mail box is a keeper and the red tile is crazy cool but the awning over the door made me giggle.

Roman brick.
