Out walking at dusk, some things that go unnoticed by day, seem to stand out. The above photo features a small, one-story house on Walker Avenue. What is noticeable is the stone walkway up to the entrance.
Likely, the stairs are from the stone masonry Andrew Leopold Schlosser. Schlosser was a European who came to Greensboro in 1900 and began making stone structures all around town. Much of his work is made from Mt. Airy granite. Here is an article that will give you more information about Schlosser's outstanding work, which he never cataloged or documented in any formal way. Schlosser ran his business by word of mouth. Those stairs have been around for many years and, hopefully, they will last for many decades more. When you are out walking around, notice the great stonework of Greensboro.
Definitely eye-catching!
