afters, except <strong>for</strong> the rafter ends, which extend beyond the edge of the roof line. Decorative beams project<br />

from the gable ends, and decorative stickwork is located at the peak of the main roof gables and front<br />

gables. The large front gable covers a partial-width porch topped by a segmental arch, supported by two<br />

rectangular stucco pillars, with stucco palisade walls between the pillars and building front. Another<br />

palisade wall runs from the western pillar to a partial-height pillar adjacent to the stairs. Stairs are concrete.<br />

Walls are false bevel drop siding. There are two main entrances, both wooden panel doors with 15 glass<br />

panes separated by muntins. The easternmost door has sidelights. Windows have vinyl frames, and include<br />

a mixture of fixed picture windows and sash windows with single panes and artificial muntins beneath the<br />

pane. Date of construction is prior to 1915 per Sanborn map. While this building has had extensive window<br />

replacement, it retains sufficient integrity to remain a contributor to the district.<br />

This 1914 Craftsman bungalow has a front-gabled roof of low pitch and an inset front gable that covers an<br />

angled bay. Rafter ends are exposed, with extended and elaborated rafter tails. Decorative beams with<br />

braces project from the peaks of the gable ends. The main gable has an open arched window. The porch<br />

gable has a triangular vent with wooden lattice. Siding is shingles beneath the gable ends and false bevel<br />

drop siding on the main floor. The partial-width porch is beneath the main building roof and supported by<br />

two rectangular pillars atop a wooden palisade wall. Stairs are wooden, with wooden handrails. The main<br />

entry door has nine inset panels, each with a glass pane in a 3x3 configuration. Windows are double-hung<br />

wooden sash with a single pane in the lower sash and the upper sash divided into rectangular panes,<br />

including a window in the basement beneath the porch. A large arched window is located beneath the main<br />

gable end with a segmental arch along the top of the window and a window box on the sill. The building is<br />

a contributor to the district.<br />

This 1921 one-story Craftsman bungalow has a side-gabled roof of low pitch and a prominent front gable<br />

that extends from the building front, covering a full-width porch. On the eastern side of the building is a<br />

flat-roofed addition with siding and windows that match the main house, probably a later addition but<br />

compatible with the remainder of the house. Rafter tails are exposed, and decorative stickwork is located at<br />

the peak of the gable ends. A brick chimney is located on the gable wall, with a terra cotta cap. Siding is<br />

shingles beneath the gable ends and false bevel drop siding on the main floor. The porch is supported by<br />

two rectangular wooden pillars atop clinker brick porch piers, with wooden balustrades extending from the<br />

corner piers to two smaller clinker brick piers astride the main stairs. The porch front is clinker brick, the<br />

porch stairs are terrazzo. Windows on the building front include a large picture window with wooden sash,<br />

topped by a horizontal row of smaller rectangular panes, a pair of wooden casement windows with each<br />

sash divided into six panes, and a window on the gable end divided into six horizontal panes divided by<br />

muntins. There are two louvered vents in the brick porch front. Windows on the building sides are a<br />

mixture of wooden double-hung windows with a single pane in each sash and several small fixed picture<br />

windows with wooden sashes. The building is a contributor to the district.<br />

This one-and-a-half story building may have originally been constructed pre-1915 as a side-gabled<br />

Craftsman bungalow, but its current configuration includes new windows, stucco siding and a concrete<br />

porch that retains little or no integrity, or the structure is a new building, thus it is not a contributor to the<br />

district.<br />

This is a two-story apartment building, built outside the district’s period of significance, and thus not a<br />

contributor to the district<br />
