Old and New

                                                                                                   
This home is in one of Philadelphia's most prestige neighborhoods on Delancey Street. It was recently renovated, modernized and full of new modern details. But thankfully the maintained the graceful look of the original stair and handrail.

Modern wall hanging fit in well with the original handrail on the 3rd floor landing area. Square Rail caps installed over turned newel posts and square block balusters finish off this very traditional look handrail.




 This how the house looked when it was original built in the late 1800's, it hasn't changed much on the exterior in 150 years. I like the horse and buggy parked outside. Now all these streets are tree lined.
