Housing in Flemington
Flemington's housing is largely Victorian and early-1900s, with steep roofs, dormers, porches and tall brick chimneys laid in soft lime mortar, along with some mid-century homes toward the borough edges. Main Street and the surrounding blocks hold brick commercial buildings with flat or low-slope roofs behind parapets. Asphalt shingle dominates the houses, with some slate and metal surviving on older buildings.
Weather and exposure
Flemington sits in open, gently rolling country, and wind reaches the borough across the surrounding farmland and development. Winters bring sustained snow cover and freeze-thaw cycling that works on old brick and flat roofs. Mature street trees shade the older blocks and drop limbs in summer thunderstorms, and the steep Victorian roofs shed snow onto porches and lower roofs below.
