About: Dogtrot house

An Entity of Type: WikicatLogBuildingsAndStructures, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The dogtrot, also known as a breezeway house, dog-run, or possum-trot, is a style of house that was common throughout the Southeastern United States during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Some theories place its origins in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Some scholars believe the style developed in the post-Revolution frontiers of Kentucky and Tennessee. Others note its presence in the South Carolina Lowcountry from an early period. The main style point was a large breezeway (instead of a hallway) through the center of the house to cool occupants in the hot southern climate.

  • Das Dogtrot-Haus oder Breezeway-House war im 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert eine typische Bauform in den Südstaaten der USA. Es stammt wahrscheinlich aus den südlichen Appalachen. Der Baustil wurde vor allem in Kentucky und Tennessee entwickelt und schon früh im Piedmont angewendet. Auch heute noch werden Dogtrot-Häuser aus modernen Baumaterialien nach dem historischen Design errichtet. (de)
