500 East Beau with wires Washington PA

The City of Washington should recognize this outstanding Queen Anne style Victorian for the landmark home that it is. It would make this one of the most photographed homes in town if the tangled mess of wires-which make it impossible to avoid them with any regular camera-were buried underground. The choice of colors here nicely complement the fine architecture. This house is located in a neighborhood having several outstanding Victorian era homes. Local coal and oil discoveries late in the 19th century brought considerable wealth to the town. Some faded homes from my last visit in 2009 were sadly gone in 2021 but overall, a fair number remain standing. Please pretend the wires aren't there...
