A few distinctive doors around the city of New Bedford MA

Good morning, and have a great day.

A few years back, I did a series of photos from walks around NYC that I called Distinctive Doors, and on my recent walks where I have been looking for cool historic buildings around the city here in New Bedford, there are some cool doors here so I have been looking for more and today I will share a few I have come across recently

Starting with this one on a property at 416 County Street. The intricate portico and classic double doors of this historic home perfectly capture nineteenth-century craftsmanship.

and has such elegant details, such as the ornate woodwork and distinct color palette of this historic residence

I guess not so much a door but the entryway leading to a door of the Roosevelt apartments

The property was built in 1924 and designed by the architectural firm Leary and Walker Architects.

It officially opened its doors to residents in September 1926. Upon opening, the six-story brick building was widely billed as "one of the most luxurious in the city". Built in a grand U-shape, it boasts an elegant pre-war brick facade, an ornamental interior courtyard featuring a central fountain, which you can see in this photo, and vintage interior elements like hardwood floors, oversized windows with views of the seaport, glass door knobs, and crown molding.

I have shared a photo of this building before it is the door for 413 County Street in New Bedford, Massachusetts, is an early Queen Anne-style Victorian mansion built in 1889 by local banker and businessman Joseph Beauvais. still beautiful but needing some care

    Those apartments remind me of the Arconia from Only Murders in the Building. Not as big of a courtyard though. My wife and I want to get a new front door, but they are so danged expensive for the good quality ones!
