431-433 East Pennsylvania Ave (Duplex), 431-433 East Pennsylvania Ave Towson, Baltimore County, MD
431-433 E. Pennsylvania Avenue is an example of a ca. 1930s two-story duplex. Although it postdates most of the houses within the East Towson Historic District, its siting, shingled exterior, front porch, and plain trim are typical of vernacular form and materials of the older residences within this African-American community. The simplified cornice with dentils is an unusual stylistic survival given the building`s mid-20th century construction date.
