I lived in an 1883 victotian before my current home. The downstairs kitchen was a lean to structure added on after the house was built. The outhouse was later attached to the lean to kitchen and a working toilet plumbed in.
The evolution of the bathroom is a great example of how technology and society have shaped our living spaces! Gives me great joy to learn such houses still exist as dwellings. Thank you for sharing.
Great video! My home is a 1928 bungalow 2bd/1b with the original windows. Solid as a rock with the original wood floors, plaster/lathe, etc. I am not sure if/when the kitchen was renovated though (if at all) since it still has the drop down ironing board (with crease press). Not a big house but big enough. She is a great old girl.
Houses of the 1920s era are great to renovate as they are straight forward to gut, kind of like a classic hot rod. I renovated a 1928 house in the Heights, Houston, Texas where the roof sheathing was 2x8 laid on its side across scissor trusses! beyond overkill pretty much spent much of the time figuring out how to expose the bones of the structure without compromising efficiency
Nice video 💪🏻😁

@architecturalab I just made an outdoor shower. I love it.
