Housing and window planning in Pennwood

Pennwood houses run from about 1,550 to 2,020 square feet. Most are brick, with some stone faced and some in cement siding. The 1953 and 1954 houses on North Pennsylvania Street are the earliest, with the 1955 houses on Washington Boulevard East Drive close behind. The newest, from 1958, sit on East 86th Street on the largest lots, at 0.65 and 0.71 acre, and some of them carry a large picture window on the front or new windows throughout. With lots this size, the houses sit far enough apart that side windows rarely look straight into a neighbor's.

The neighborhood's housing gives us a starting point for the visit. We'll still measure your house individually, including any openings that have changed during an update. If you're replacing windows as part of the project, let us know before the treatments are ordered so the plan can use the finished frames.

What to check at the windows in Pennwood

Large picture windows are common on East 86th Street, and a single wide pane like that usually takes one shade or a pair of drapery panels sized to the whole opening. If a picture window sits beside smaller sash, the crew measures each opening separately and checks that a headrail clears the trim between them. Replacement windows turn up too, since some of the 1958 houses have new windows throughout. Replacement frames can sit at a different depth than the originals, so the crew checks depth at every window before choosing an inside or outside mount.

We'll look at the way light enters your Pennwood rooms and check how the windows operate. The treatment needs to suit the opening when it's lowered and when it's raised. That includes the space for the hardware and the access you'll need to use the window.

Products to compare for your Pennwood home

These are options to discuss during your Pennwood consultation. We'll narrow the choice after seeing the glass and learning which rooms you're working on. You can review a coordinated plan for the house or start with the rooms that need attention first.
