Architecture of the 1920's
November 3, 2016 |
Why were so many Minnesota homes built in the 1920s? We’ll dig into that question and examine the variety of architecture created here during the “roaring twenties.”
Architectural features (think built-in buffets and three-season porches), construction trends and societal context will help to explain this decade-long housing boom. Students will learn about common and popular house styles, who was building them, the neighborhoods they formed and what distinctive elements made these dwellings desirable to buyers.
This overview, taught by architectural historian and Executive Director of the Nicollet County Historical Society Alyssa Auten, is three hours long and worth three CE credits. It is open to licensed Minnesota REALTORS® from any brokerage.
