[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here. I was thinking of houses built after 2010 vs houses from before WWII (even before WWI). No experience with 1950-1970s houses.[/quote] [b]so most of the "old" homes around here, Arlington, Alexandria, MontCo, are built post-WWII.[/b] If you are talking close in NW, or Old Town, that is a different story. This is not an old town. Until WWII, there was not a lot here. The housing here sucks. Tearing down 1950s ramblers and putting up 2014 building code houses is an improvement (though I can argue with the architecture of the hideous craftsman style houses).[/quote] I agree. To me, post-WWII houses are all deficient in various ways. A bona fide well-constructed old house with character = pre-WWII, preferably 1920 or earlier. The housing stock here is terrible.[/quote]
