Aside from brownstone/limestone Brooklyn, I find the borough's residential architecture ugly as hell. Is there some pocket of Craftsman homes anywhere in BK or Queens?
Not quite sure exactly what you mean by "craftsman" but Brooklyn,Queens and even The Bronx have lots of neighborhoods with nice architecture that is not of the brownstone/limestone type.Queens and The Bronx have lots of 1920's Tudor style neighborhoods and Brooklyn is loaded with Victorian neighborhoods.
Also,even in many of the neighborhoods with the kind of ugly outer borough architecture you are referring to there are often nice houses underneath all those fake parapets and aluminum or fake brick facades.
I see them in cities large and small all over the US and except for a few behemoths in Bay Ridge, I haven't seen any here. Just wondering if there is some undiscovered Craftsman neighborhood I am unaware of.
