Jinx, I agree the missing patches of stucco on the stone or brick buildings looks cool. I have however seen some new houses where they tried to replicate that look and it just didn't look right. It look too contrived.

Yes! There's a brand new castle-sized home not far from here with the 'stone showing thru' look.... looks like it belongs at disney or something...
