THE OMITTED 2ND FLOOR VERANDA STATEMENTS
" Like many plantation homes built between 1830 and 1860, Oak Alley was designed with a second story veranda. The second-floor veranda found at Oak Alley was omitted. It was thought that the concept of a second story veranda was too informal for a Governor’s Mansion. "
- I have serious doubts as to the validity of these statements. There are many examples of Southern Antebellum Mansions that don't have (didn't have) second-floor veranda's: for example Greenwood, Belle Grove, Shadowlawn and D'evereuex just name a few. -- Avazina, (Talk to me) 13:26, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
