Rowhouses Near and Far: Historian Charlie Duff on his New Book “The North Atlantic Cities”

Engineers Club / Garrett Jacobs Mansion 11 West Mount Vernon Place, Baltimore, MD, United States

What do Amsterdam, London, Dublin, and Baltimore have in common? They are part of the great family of the world’s rowhouse cities, of course!
