The Dexter House

Students in Drexel University's Digital Media program have begun recreating exact 3D replicas of colonial era structures for use in educational programs.

The Dexter House was recreated based on information regarding the house foundation obtained at the site and a survey of buildings from the time period fitting the style of the house, consultation with Park Services as well as buildings created by the Dexter House's carpenter.

The exterior 360 of the Dexter House shows the house as it could have been along with the adjoining attached to it. The exterior of the house is obtained from a survey of similar houses constructed by the original Dexter House carpenter. Models and animation by Chester Cunanan
