I always buy brown windows for at least the street facing portions of my rehabs. You are right that white vinyl looks like shit. Also, many older windows are too big to make a single double hung vinyl for, I often find that aluminum is cheaper because they would have to have a nasty transom if you did Vinyl.

It's already in full swing, I've seen several crews which usually consist of a cherry picker truck pulling a huge wagon full of old heads.
