Talk:Mount Vernon Proprietors

The houses from 70 through 75 Beacon Street, Boston, opposite the Boston Public Garden, were built by the Mount Vernon Proprietors in 1828, on a speculative basis. They have a continuous granite facade. The architect was Asher Benjamin (1773 - 1845).

According to a Harvard text on Beacon Hill arcitecture, #72's facade is unchanged and #73 retains its original brass-work on the front door. These houses are in addition to those listed in the article. Byron Street (talk) 13:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
