Typical Baltimore formstone-faced rowhousesExample of Formstone style masonry from Richmond District in San Francisco
Formstone is a type of stucco[1] commonly applied to brick rowhouses in many East Coast urban areas in the United States, although it is most strongly associated with Baltimore. As a form of simulated masonry, Formstone is commonly colored and shaped on the building to imitate various forms of masonry compound, creating the trompe-l'œil appearance of stone.
