Description
Small Limestone Home by D Hackett
Taken in the rural Florida
Sustainable construction is hardly a fresh concept. In Gainesville, Florida, there?s no better example than the structures made out of chert, a type of limestone quarried locally. Builders first turned to the material during the Florida land bust in the late-1920s and it saw widespread use during the Great Depression through World War II. Its use declined after the war, but by then it had already become a recognizable part of the city and builders still periodically use it as an architectural embellishment.

Love the setting and the homey feel to this place. It would be a great re model project!
