Mango House

Situated on Mango Street, the house looks out toward Jabal Akhddar on the other side of the valley that is downtown Amman.

[1] The house is built with smooth rose stone and has numerous wrap-around balconies.

[1] A similarity to other 1940s houses is the clear separation of rooms, instead of using a more traditional tripartite plan.

The upper unit was revamped even further when, in 1995, a two-room penthouse was added.

[1] The Mango family continues to occupy the house today.
