Excerpt from Model Houses for Little Money
The charm of the English cottages lies largely in their tile or thatch roofs and low stories set close to the ground all of which in this country we mus abandon at the outset, and, most radical difference of all, we must provide a large, roofed porch in place of their stoop. Then, again, the unnatural, speculative value of land in the suburbs of all of our Cities forces us to build our houses on narrow lots, so that the end Of the house is usually toward the road or street, making it still more difficult to follow English precedent.
