Before 1950's

Here is what you call an old "Victorian" house. Many of these homes are located between 89 avenue and 85 avenue through a wide range of blocks. Many of these homes seem to have the castle looking type of style. Today, houses being built are no more one family houses, contractors are building three family houses or even multiple sets of two family homes. Majority of the houses around my neighborhood in Richmond Hill are like the one in the image. Houses are built by wood and have enormous amount of rooms. Usually the houses consists of five bedrooms and three bathrooms. They also have access to their basements, however the yard space and driveways are pretty small sizes. Few houses have a veranda in the front. Homeowners usually have chairs outside so they can enjoy the nice weather on the porch.
You can spot an old Victorian house also called Queensmark from a distance. Homes have a cylinder shape on at least two sides of the house. What I find really interesting about these obsolete houses are the windows. The windows have many different variety of shapes. There are the oval shaped looking windows that stands out the most that I like. The windows are shaped in different ways such as rectangular, oval, square and even circular believe it or not. Old Victorian houses are huge. The homes contain tremendous amounts of living space with two floors and an attic. I strongly believe the color of the houses are terrible. Victorian homes have colors like burgundy, light blue, all types of greenish colors and maroon.
