Beautiful houses! Great work.
I lived in a Chicago bungalow built in 1919 and owned by a friend. Took many years off of my life stripping paint off of woodwork and windows.
Loved the leaded glass windows, plaster walls, and extensive woodwork and built-ins. Sadly, many of the bungalows in the Chicago suburbs have been torn down and replaced with "mcmansions" that are too big for the lots.
