Porches: History, Design, and Construction

LakewoodAlive presents "Porches: History, Design, and Construction," a presentation by Alexa McDonough of the Cleveland Restoration Society.


Whether your porch is Victorian or Colonial Revival, it takes a beating in our Northeast Ohio climate. We will look at common construction and deterioration issues and propose methods for repair and replacement of lost details. Additionally, you’ll enjoy our look at the evolution of the American porch from humble masonry stoops to fully furnished verandahs.
