DC and Boston have some of the most interesting residential streets in the U.S. Though the examples given by the OP aren't particularly interesting. The first example of Boston given by iAMtheWalrus is outstanding. Classic red brick Boston bow front row houses. I have a soft spot for these types of houses. DC also has alot of row houses similar to these.
New Orleans and DC were my favorites, I like NOLA as a city more so I'd pick it as my top. I love walking around all those neighborhoods from Uptown through the Garden District, just so much character and a cool vibe.
What did you not like very much about the pics of DC and New Orleans?
DC was too dense. New Orleans didn't look kept well enough, and there was too much diversity in the housing (really small houses next to average sized ones, etc).
Which one of these city's unique residential streets appeal to you the most in terms of architecture, streets, greenery, scene, charm, etc. Here are some examples of each of these city's exclusive and signature blocks:

Count me among those that quite like this thread! That being said, I gotta ask... how did you decide that these were examples of the cities' "exclusive and signature" blocks? It's been pointed out by a few (Boston, St. Louis, and Seattle for example) that these seem to be more "typical" type blocks as opposed to higher-end ones

Me thinking about it, I should've said "Examples of some of the coolest residential blocks I found of these cities" or something along those lines. I guess by saying "exclusive and signature", I was implying that those blocks have distinct characteristics that might set them apart from blocks in other cities. For example, the shots of New Orleans seem pretty exclusive to the city or Mediterranean architecture is a signature style in many of Miami's residential areas. I tried to look for cool residential areas that might be typical, but still showcase some of the distinct characteristics (such as architecture, greenery, space, etc.) that can be found in the nice residential areas of these cities.
St. Louis is nothing like Baltimore. Architecture and culturally there very different. LOL
