Boston University Drawing Toward Home

Drawing Toward Home: Designs for Domestic Architecture from Historic New England features one hundred drawings of New England houses dating from the eighteenth through the twentieth century, and depicting an array of building types– estates, modest single-family houses, summer cottages, and even a typical three-decker Boston apartment building. The exhibition includes designs in the Federal, Victorian, Arts and Crafts, and International styles by both famous and little-known architects.

This exhibition was generously sponsored by The Boston University Humanities Foundation.
For those of your who can bear to listen to this audio from the Extra Credit Lecture for Arch History A. This was the last lecture that would could goto for credit.
