Tech/Engineering - Architecture
English term or phrase: brownstones
Il termine si riferisce alle case eleganti di arenaria da costruzione di color bruno rossastro (così le descrive il Ragazzini) di New York-Manhattan. Qualcuno sa se il termine viene mantenuto anche in italiano o, se tradotto, come viene tradotto? Grazie

Explanation:
Il termine viene largamente usato anche in italiano, mi pare sia talmente tipico da non avere traduzione... in ogni caso viene sempre lasciato tra virgolette!!

Buon lavoro
