Not as unique now and I am not exactly certain of what the final thing is going to look like. I do like the black framed windows.



You mean it was the home and studio of notable Mid-century modern *architect* Norman Rice (although it was later owned by the founder of Fabric Workshop). See this 2018 HiddenCity piece: Inside An Atomic Age Time Capsule In Fitler Square | HiddenCityPhila.org
