In an explosion of posts yesterday, InDecatur documented many of the goings-on at Monday’s Decatur City Commission meeting.  Among the most interesting photos taken were of the buildings to be built on the site of Allen Wilson Terrace.

We saw one of these renderings back in September, and though an architect working for the firm developing the site stated “the rendering is not the final design”, it looks quite similar to what we saw back then.  (Yes Scott, you’re porkchop eaves are still there!)

However, the other rendering, which Dave tells me is the Senior Living Apartments along Commerce called “The Oliver House” (assumedly for Decatur’s Henry Oliver, a local business owner back at the turn of the 20th century, who had is street name taken away from him back in the 1980s, but don’t get me started on that).

Anyway, the Oliver House has quite an interesting style, which I might venture to call “English Manor House Modern”.  Check it out.
