Riverside Homes

An oldie but a goodie from John, who found this one over the past weekend…


Sprawl, 1980 Style…

  • I know this sounds strange, but I swear I've seen a faux-tudor like that somewhere out on olde tecumseh road - did Riverside / Bill Docherty do any of the development out there?
    In fact, it looks from the picture like there are several similar houses - one beside it to the left, and one on a lot behind it to the right.
    Weird, ugly house though.

  • I don't find the faux tudor house overly objectionable. At least it isn't all "garage" with a wee bit of "house" peeking out in the corners. All moot anyway, if these babies were never really built. Guess that means I won't be able to "ask the family who owns one" then. ;)

  • I'm sure it was built, just who knows where... :) I'm willing to bet those houses are somewhere in the Forest Glade area.

    Anyone that has to go out there with any regularity, keep your eyes open and let me know if you see any of the samples posted above.
