Description

Photograph of an exterior view of a residence on Gower Street looking east, [s.d.]. The house at center has many small, rectangular windows in its dark walls and a steep-sloping roof. A small awning shades the front door on the left with thick, stone posts and a short, stone wall which contains the entrance. A small path cuts through the dusty yard from the curb in the foreground to the entrance. A second house stands next to the first on the far left with a tower that is almost cylindrical. Plants climb the walls of the second house.
