Talk:Skinny House (Boston)

InfoBox

The large photo looks good where it is, so I wasn't sure whether to add template:Infobox Historic building. If you think it looks better the other way, feel free to remove the template. GregManninLB (talk) 14:43, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

• Template is cool, thanks. I might tackle some more of the red links in your spite house article. If there is any you were hoping to do yourself, please indicate and I will let you "play through". House of Scandal (talk) 21:13, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Infobox image

@Jonathunder: Sorry, I didn't see you had just recently replaced the infobox image or I would've posted here before boldly replacing. Guess I was hot on your heels on the Freedom Trail. :) Hope you don't mind. Given there wasn't much room between the house and the graveyard, I went for a panorama to be able to get the house in context (between the two others). Wish the light were better, but I think the results were pretty good (might've gotten lucky with the stitching). Let me know if it's controversial. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 04:17, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Our photos appear to have been taken at almost the same time! I agree, of course, that yours shows more context. Jonathunder (talk) 17:05, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Is the location of the entrance noteworthy?

From the article: "The house spans 10.4 feet (3.16 m) at Hull Street, its widest point. There is no entrance here; the house may only be entered via a small alley"

I see the location of the entrance (on the "left" side of the house as seen from the street, rather than on the street) mentioned here - as well as in many articles about the house. Is this really noteworthy though? The front of the house could accommodate a door (as noted elsewhere, it's over ten feet wide).

I feel like it's a stretch that sensationalizes the house a bit. Thoughts?
