In the 1920's, Woodward decided to create a development that mimicked his love of the old stone farmhouses he had seen while traveling in the Normandy region of France. These houses are beautiful examples of French Normandy architecture in the United States. It is examples like this that inspired me to do what I do. If it could have been built in the 1920's, it can certainly be done today in my city of Fort Worth or anywhere. Woodward obviously had a very keen eye for details and a true understanding of scale. The houses posted here are located on Gate Lane and the pictures come from the George Woodward Co. which is still in existence today as a real estate company in Philadelphia. I will cover more of the Philadelphia area in other posts as there are great examples of period revival architecture from architects like Mellor, Meigs and Howe. I hope you enjoy these photographs.
