COMMENTARY Porch talk AMDEN — With the arrival of spring and the advance of summer, American life shifts toward the porch — at least for Cthose lucky enough to have a sheltered outdoor space, preferably attached to the front or back of one’s home. That all people seem to love a porch and the conversations and activities that transpire there, it’s a wonder that anyone ever bothered to build a dwelling without one. Architects, hang your heads. But then, perhaps it isn’t the fault of designers or builders that American porches have come and gone from favor after their initial popularization in the 19th century, depending upon cultural developments and climate. In their earliest days, long before air-conditioning, porches provided relief from summer heat. But porches couldn’t compete with electrical- ly cooled air, and people went back inside.
