@davidlhoste says: "Raised-basement home in the Queen Anne style with beautifully detailed gables and spandrels in Uptown New Orleans. In a city surrounded by levees and floodwalls, where the water table makes real basements impractical, homebuilders in the first few years of the 20th century came up with the raised-basement house, which had no actual basement whatsoever, but a ground level with lower ceilings, incorrectly referred to as a basement, and higher-ceilings in the living space above. This one just needs a landscaper."
