  3. Living on the bay and loving it

    Driving the back roads that hug the periphery of Maryland's shoreline, there is no singular characteristic that defines the homes. The ones that date back to summer-only retreats are usually one-story clapboard structures with the give-away air conditioning unit in a window or two. Some are two-story, farmhouse styles. Many are built with their backs to the Chesapeake Bay or its tributaries.

  7. Green to the max

    When architect Isabelle Duvivier of Duvivier Architects bought a dilapidated 100-year-old home in the neighborhood of her dreams, she kept the 950-square-foot floor plan but gave it a modern, environmentally friendly update that won a LEED platinum rating as well as the U.S. Green Building Council's 2012 Outstanding Home Award. Rather than demolish the 1912 house, Duvivier remodeled. "I wanted to preserve as much of the original house as I could," she said. A new second-story master bedroom is set back from the street to respect the scale of the Venice, Calif., neighborhood. Duvivier planted a vegetable garden in the front yard, as well as fruit trees and grapes along the alley.

  8. Yellow brick buildings come from clay pit

    A clay pit and kiln in Boyne Falls produced yellow bricks that were used for buildings in the village and over east. The brick kiln is about 50 yards north of Aten Place on a bank on the "Old Mackinaw Trail," a half-mile south of the village. Chunks of the yellow brick — like the "Yellow Brick Road" — crop out of the side of the bank in about a 20-square-yard area and brick-bats (small chunks) that exploded out of the kiln door in days gone by are scattered over the field toward Aten's farmhouse.
