Fireplaces: Located on North Palm Canyon Drive at Via Escuela, the twelve detached townhome community is being designed specifically to appeal to buyers who appreciate contemporary design, unprecedented attention to detail, and outstanding quality.
Each of the fully landscaped two-story townhomes feature many unique touches such as glass stairways with modern open railings, illuminated and translucent glass garage doors, unique custom fireplaces and aluminum baseboards, and special glass-to-glass corner windows.
The desire for warmth and comfort may well have motivated man's first use of a fire. The earliest evidence shows that man used wood and charcoal in open fires to produce warmth, as well as to prepare food, in his cave or shelter. Such simple open fires were used as late as the 19th century by American Indians, who built fires in their huts and tepees, which had openings to allow the smoke to escape. A different method was devised by 300 B. c. by Europeans who built crude fireplaces with connecting chimneys; with this arrangement, combustion efficiency and room ventilation were much improved. |
