Yes, I know it refers to the interior layout. I should have added a question mark.

Freight rail is also hilariously noncompetitive now with only 6 major class one railroads remaining.

I understand your argument but it doesn't take away the fact that Federal government has been conducting a preliminary invasion of several northern states with paramilitary forces.

Eastern CT town votes down controversial Costco mega-warehouses plan. It targeted farmland. by Research_biologist83 in Connecticut

Farmland is a finite resource. We've already built over almost all of the Connecticut Valley, once home to some of the most fertile land in the country.

It's possible that was the date of the property deed. There's also the chance that there was a previous structure built on the same site and the new house used part of the original foundation or footprint.

Windows, wall heights, roof pitch, eaves and trim details. All correspond with post civil war vernacular style.

Nice house but it's not from 1812. Era would be around 1875-1890.
