North Market Street
December 2002: North Market Street as seen from across Florrissant. These four blocks have the proportions and design of a grand urban thoroughfare, reinforced by its plentiful vintage housing. Equally important, no out-of-place infill houses have been dropped into the vacant lots. Recent infill has made a strong effort to blend seemlessly into the streetscape.

December 2002: A rehab project on the 1200 block of North Market, one of several underway on the street at the time.

November 2005: The previous work was not carried through to completion, but the house still has hope as part of the ongoing North Market Place development.

November 2005: A trio of new houses on North Market. They have some design weaknesses, such as windows that don't seem quite large enough, and of course the vinyl siding poking out of the rear, but overall they are an admirable effort to rebuild the street wall.

November 2005: There were houses here once; soon it will be so again.

November 2005: Renovation work on surviving houses on the next lot east.

November 2005: Renovation has yet to reach this tiny house on the north side of the street.

November 2005: Gut rehab of a two-story commercial building down the street.

September 2006: The renovation progresses.

September 2006: The view from a block north.
