Wheeling Architecture - Brackets
One goal of the Fort Henry Gazette is to educate readers about the city's historic architecture. We'll start with brackets. As defined by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission - a bracket is "a projecting angled or curved form used as a support, found in conjunction with balconies, lintels, pediments, cornices, etc." Brackets are a well known architectural feature throughout Wheeling on many homes and businesses. The buildings shown in this post can be found in the Centre Market area.
