Description
Description
A tribute to the Baton Rouge architect whose homes have reconnected Southerns with their past. Literally 1,000 residences can attest to the legendary energy and skill of this man who habitually rose in the early morning darkness to draw and to paint. At his most prolific, Town produced, largely by his own hand, one set of residential drawings per week.
