but it's exciting because my porch is pretty unusual and has a great story. we have these crazy balusters on our rail that are completely out of place on a bungalow. this is an old photo, but you get the idea:
our elderly neighbor shared her old journals with us a couple of years ago, and she had documentation that the rails were salvaged from the c.a. williams mansion in 1955, when it was demolished for construction of the john belk freeway (277). here's a photo, and those are our balusters on the lower level.
i'm especially excited about this renovation project, because i love honoring the quirky history of our home. different columns, different stairs... but the same eccentric little rail.
