This front-gabled Craftsman bungalow has exposed rafter tails and knee braces under gable ends. Walls are<br />

false bevel drop siding with shingles under the gable ends. Two louvered vents surrounding a fixed window<br />

divided into three vertical panes are located beneath the front gable end. A decorative scrollwork board is<br />

located below the gable end window. The building appears to have originally had a full-width porch, at<br />

some point partially enclosed with false bevel drop siding, at the northeast corner. One original rectangular<br />

porch pillar is located in the enclosed section of the porch, while the other pillars have been replaced by<br />

simple 4x4 inch porch posts. Windows are aluminum sliders, and the stairs appear to have been replaced<br />

with a wooden staircase with a handrail of dimensional lumber. Despite the alterations to the building’s<br />

external appearance, its basic scale and proportion are compatible with the neighborhood, so the building<br />

remains a contributor to the district. Date of construction is prior to 1915 per Sanborn map.<br />

This one-story Colonial Revival building, built in 1922, has a hipped roof with a prominent front-gabled<br />

dormer with a small double-hung wood sash window. The walls are simple lap siding. A hipped porch roof<br />

covers a simple wooden porch with dimensional lumber pillars, a wooden porch floor and wooden stairs<br />

with railings of dimensional lumber. Wooden lattice is located between the porch and the ground, with<br />

concrete blocks whose appearance simulates ashlar stone on the corners of the porch. Similar blocks are<br />

used on the perimeter of the building foundation. Windows are aluminum sliders, aside from the wooden<br />

sash window in the dormer. The porch pillars and windows detract from the overall integrity of the house,<br />

but due to its retention of original siding and overall building <strong>for</strong>m and condition, the building retains<br />

sufficient integrity to remain a contributor to the district.<br />

This 1906 Neoclassic row house has a hipped roof and hipped dormer, with a front bay and partial-width<br />

porch with Doric columns. The walls are stucco, from its appearance not the original siding. The windows<br />

have been replaced with vinyl dual-pane windows, and one front window was replaced with a second front<br />

door. Both front doors are also modern replacements. The dormer window is a five-pane strip of fixed<br />

panes in a wooden sash.The stairs to the porch are wooden with railings of dimensional lumber, and<br />

probably not original. The building was constructed by Wright & Kimbrough. Due to the extent of the<br />

modifications to this building’s siding, windows, doors, porch and stairs, it lacks sufficient integrity to be a<br />

contributor to the district.<br />

This Cali<strong>for</strong>nia bungalow has a front-gabled roof with two smaller front gables located symmetrically on<br />

the front of the building. Siding is asphalt or other composite material. A partial-width porch is located<br />

under the main building roof. A single-pane window under the gable end is flanked by two louvered vents.<br />

Windows are vinyl sash windows. Wooden stairs with wooden handrails lead to the porch. Due to the<br />

extent of the modifications to this building’s siding, windows, doors and stairs, it lacks sufficient integrity<br />

to be a contributor to the district.<br />
