I think that they just look like residences from another era. Reminds me of many houses on our own historical Summit Avenue in St. Paul. I wouldn't mind prowling around these buildings for a year or two!
Oooh! Yes! Dark and sinister indeed! Perfect setting for writing a mystery -- if you were brave enough to spend a night there!! Wonderful capture, Jack! Enjoy your weekend!
They're very complicated-looking houses somehow. Not sure if like them or not, though they look historic. Maybe a different colour paint job is needed. Nice to see though.
Yes, this photo would make a great cover for a novel about Halloween or witches. Just imagine them on a dark night in the midst of storm racked by thunder and lightning!
I think it's definitely the trees that make it look a little scary ..and maybe the style and colour. I do like the 'panoramic' effect on this image Jack.
Beautiful houses from another era, I like the wide view,perfect for the case. You probably know that the Russian for 'avenue' is prospekt,which would make this quite funny to them...

I agree. I guess some witches would like to live here...
I think if the trim was painted a lighter color, they wouldn't seem so foreboding. But I would still love a place like this!

i see what you mean...re: the twain house and the sense of darkness. wonder what it is about these that gives that impression.
I like this. It is very nice Jack!
Nice looking houses, but, yes...they do have a creepy element to them. I wouldn't want to be a kid trick-or-treating there!
For sure and it daylight. Up the ante when the sun goes down.
This looks like the setting for any story that begins with the words "It was a dark and stormy night . . . "
They are gorgeous, Jack!
This place reminds me some movie scenery!

i think they look like they are part of a fairy tale story. you could write a short story about them also. very interesting find.

A bit of sunshine and a few flowers and they would be friendly! They are beautiful homes.
Maybe it is the many bare trees. I like these old homes, they look like a great place to explore.

Well... I was going to say something like Hitchcock...

They do have a sort of sinister look now that you mention it. I wonder if the bare trees are contributing to that feeling.
They do look a bit sinister...but I think that is why I like them so much.
Beautiful homes.
I dunno. My impression was that they could be professors' houses on the campus of some old New England university.

Looks a bit scary.... something have happened here in the old days!?
Fantastic! This looks like a movie set, exactly because there is something almost sinister here. Love this photo!
These look like houses out of a fairytale book.
