Vertically


As I said in yesterday's blog, not only is this location a park, but also a historic site.  This is the Burwell House.  It was built in 1883 for Charles H. Burwell, manager of the Minnetonka Mill Company, and his family.

What strikes me the most about this house is how tall and skinny it is.  All of the windows are narrow and all of the rooms look very narrow.  I'm also wondering what the tower is used for.

I'm going to have to stop again at different times of the year to see the change of seasons.  And maybe come back for one of the interior tours at some point.
