national register nomination for boulevard park historic

This Neoclassic row house has a hipped roof with flared ends and a hipped gable. Date of construction is
prior to 1915 per Sanborn map. Eaves are boxed. An angled bay and porch are located on the building
front. Siding is false bevel drop siding to the line of the floor plate, with wood siding and brick on the
building front below the line of the floor plate. The porch is supported by two narrow posts of dimensional
lumber, with a wrought-iron balustrade. The stairs are non-original wood with metal handrails. A metal
roll-up garage door is located beneath the porch, leading to a basement garage. Opposite the garage door,
the brick siding has a brick planter box and an aluminum slider window. Other windows on the building
exterior are double-hung wooden sash windows with a single pane in each sash. The building appears to
have been converted into a four-unit apartment building, probably after the end fo the period of
significance. Alterations to the porch, ground floor and windows have resulted in some loss of building
integrity, but the building retains most of its original materials aside from the front elevation and porch, so
the building remains a contributor to the district.

This two-story building has a hipped roof with minimal roof overhang and false bevel drop siding. It is
attached to the rear of a larger building on the lot of 431 21st Street. Architectural style is vernacular, but
complementary to the building it is attached to. Windows are double-hung wooden sash on the first floor,
with aluminum sliders on the second story. The building does not appear as an address in city directories
during the period of significance, per Sanborn maps it was built after 1915 but prior to 1952. Due to its
apparent construction date after the period of significance, this building is not a contributor to the district.
