Here is the description I took from a website*
This is perhaps the most photographed vista in the city. It was made famous initially on postcards sent around the world, then to mass audiences by the television show Too Close for Comfort which had its fictional home in these row houses. It is the contrast of skyscrapers with Victorian buildings that is so engaging. And for the city, it illustrates its ability to embrace what is new and modern without turning its back on its cherished (though brief) history. This is an easy place to take photographs because of the park across the street.
