Re: 2413 Carrington… does this roof design fit in? Look a bit modern suburbia rather than Victorian.

@Eric – it fits Fairmount, there’s some number of existing houses back in there with a similar roof design. There are maybe 2 on the 1100 block of 23rd, and a good looking newer house by BHC at 23rd and R that may have an identical facade to what is proposed here.

@2 Why do you complain about a mixed use development not providing parking and then turn around and complain about a duplex providing parking?

@4 I think @2 is just getting a little stir crazy being home from work today. Why would anyone care about a garage being built behind a house on Carrington? Is this the current state of nameless internet smack talk?
