Houses in New Orleans
This is a single shotgun house. The address is 2508 Burgundy St, New Orleans. This house looks very easy. It's convenient for a small family to live. It's very easy to clean and this house is welcome for the people, who don't want to live in a big house. People live in single shotgun house easy to have good environment. This is a double shotgun house. The address is 926 St. Roch, New Orleans. If you have good friend, who want to live next you. This is an excellent choice. During the breakfast, lunch and dinner, you can talk with your friends. I like this color of the double shotgun house.

houses
if sure. i guess is an special double shotgun.it's has white colour , pitched roof and bench floor.
This is my favourite house.There is a dog statue out side of the house, The road in front of house has two tying horses on either hand . Do you see the two iron art lamp on the wall .it's very classical , maybe this house is antique.
Next, i discuss about the different culture of people who lives in st.charles and marigny.why arts come from marigny circle. i guess is depends on people who lives here and communication.

Field Trip
I am staying at a double shotgun house in New Orleans. The main characteristic of this type of houses is the layout of the house. The rooms are lined up one behind de other. For instance, my friend’s house has the living room first, then one room, then the bathroom, then another room and finally the kitchen.
2427 Burgundy St.
I choose this two-way shotgun house, because I liked the color of its doors.
832 Spain st.
This is a Creole Cottage. This type of house doesn’t have a front porch, and has four rooms without hallways.
The main characteristic is the sleepy pitched roof.
2430 Royal st.
912 Spain st.
This is a camelback house. This type of house is a variation of a shotgun that has a partial second floor over a rear of the house that looks like a hump on a camel.
Marigny
I choose this house because it’s original, and it reminds me of a polish house. Also, I like huge houses, so that’s why this building caught my attention. This building doesn't fit into any groups of buildings, it’s not a shotgun, and camel-back… it’s just a huge unique house. Houses on the other side of the street were small, most of them were just single shotgun houses and that’s why this house “stands out from the crowd”
This house is big and unique as well. I like it not only because of the size, but also because of the bright blue color. Once again it doesn’t fit to any of the groups. Houses around were pretty big like this one but none of them was so colorful.
And the last building, it’s a typical two-way shotgun house. These colors remind me a house from a fairy tale. I think that blue, white and red colors are harmoniously arranged. Almost all of the houses on this street were single or double shotgun.
