Curbed?s most popular stories of 2016



Good stuff you might have missed From our February relaunch to big multimedia packages like ?Starter Homes 'R' Us? and ?10 Streets That Define America,? it?s been a jam-packed year on Curbed. In the midst of it all, some stories found particular popularity among readers. If this list of the year?s most-read stories is any indication, then it?s clear people will never get tired of gorgeous, expensive, or otherwise exceptional real estate. Hear hear! Lots more where that came from in 2017.
For the sake of variety, this roundup only includes stories published in 2016 (though plenty of eyes continue to turn to our regularly updated guides to tiny houses and prefab homes ready to order, as well as to one very special Indiana house.)
Here we go!
