Can you guess which window is in Cape May, New Jersey and which one is in Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania?

Dianne says
the top is PA
the shutters are Cape May
???
I can make a case for either way, I just remember lots of shutters in Cape May
they're both really pretty
Leora says
The top is Cape May. Fancy details.
Bottom is Washington Crossing, PA. Simpler lines and not as clean; Cape May is a wealthier area.
Lew says
I like the clean lines of the top window! My guess is that the shutters are Cape May to protect the windows from storms.
Mar says
I couldn't tell which one is which, but I love your windows!!

I would put the shutters in Cape May as well. Both shots have a lot of character. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
Jew Wishes says
I am guessing that the photo with the window shutters are Cape May.
Sara says
I never would have been able to guess...no experience on the East Coast! I do like the shades of blue in both photos.
Baila says
I guessed correctly. Cape May's homes are more victorian and the second one looks more early america--as would be fitting for Washington's Crossing. Both pictures are nice.
Leora says
Very good, Baila - many of Cape May's homes were destroyed in a fire in the 1870's, so many of the pretty homes one now sees there are from that post-fire period.
The Pagan Sphinx says
Nice windows!
James says
That was too easy for me. :-)
I like both though.
