Yes that's the one I think. It was a statistical look at foundation
constructions (or "cellar holes") in Virginia to establish a regional
typology of selection if you will of house types, rather than looking
for "biblical ratios" in their construction, which James Deetz
mentioned, in "Small Things Forgotten". The "Foundry Houses" which
someone decided to attribute to "workers housing" with four
guardhouses behind it in an old very wide field stereopair photo -
19th century in the West Point Foundry School Museum, "quis custodiet
ipsos custodes?" Who will watch the watchers themselves? ) were
overgrown and because of "imperfection" in the photo (i.e. apparently
heat plumes) the older two foundations were almost missed at the range
the photo was taken, somewhere over on Constitution Island, NY. The
two central core with two wing foundations look like those shown as a
predominate type, in "Virginia", i.e.,  |    |  |   |  versus the
other two, i.e,, |          | of about the same dimensions.
