Although a few of the houses had siding, most of them are Stucco, but I noticed a really cool blue
house that I thought was awesome, plus it appeared to be a little bit more open than the other houses. A lot of the houses by our hostel are close together though. And a lot of them that I noticed are either fenced in or have hedges or trees around them. Quite a few also have some kind of floral decoration and/or Gnomes or something in the yard. In fact a business that looks like a house has a decorative tree in it´s front yard.
I noticed this house that is in the middle of being built on the way to the computer concourse. I noticed that they use a cement block sized brick to form the basic house, like they do in Cincinnati with smaller buildings. before they finish the outside, it looks like they do a lot of inside work, but the basic frame outside is done including the roof.
I really like this blue house also. It's relatively new. I saw it getting built on an earlier visit to the city. There is an orange one near it that's interesting also. Did you notice the house currently being built near them? What differences do you see in how houses are built?
