The flat topped houses of the Junction, and their decades redress


Most of the  townhouses though out the Greater Junction Area have a common peaked roof.

But look around and there are many flat roof houses usually in a set built row of 3 or 5.

This type of housing is common in Ontario from small towns to cities, with Port Hope having a good number of houses of this form that have been well conserved.

The two houses  pictured above are good examples of  the various type of facade materials placed on the fronts of many of these houses over the decades. Aluminium and recently plastic siding, flat rock, and stucco.

A very interesting characteristic of these two houses is the retain of the standard and pretty bush that once was on the majority of Junction front lots.
