They're adorable.

I'm fascinated with the small triangular shaped houses. I was in one once. The rooms really are pointy.

With the Manchester homes, it seems odd seeing those two old and narrow homes from the 19th century right across the street from typical suburban looking houses.

BTW, how do you figure out the widths so precisely? As far as I can see, the county site rounds to the nearest foot, and Google Maps doesn't have a precise scale bar.

The assessment site map tab shows property line lengths to two decimal places. It says "Data displayed on this map is for informational purposes only. It is not survey accurate and is meant to only show a representation of property lines." I think this disclaimer more refers to the shapes of the polygons and where they seem to lie on the satellite map, but it's still worth taking the measurements with a grain of salt.
