I have got two questions about town houses in the Bronx
1. All strips of town houses I find with Streetview have plain fronts. They do not look as old as the Cornerstone models. I guess they are all build after 1980. Have there been no town houses prior to the 1980s or did they all burn down in the 70s and 80s?
2. All town houses I found have an elevated 1.st floor. The usual reason it high ground water. That might be a good explanation for the lower areas close to Hunts Point etc. But I find it also in areas more elevated in the west of the Bronx. Is there another reason I do not see?
Thanks in advance
