NOTES
Additional Information:Wm. Maas was the resident in 1868. This two story, wood frame, brick veneer building is quite similar to other storedwellings in the area. It has its gable end to the street, with a slightly unusual window placement at the second floor. Instead of the upper facade, this structure has a single double hung window above the second story entrance door, and a group of three double hung units above the storefront. The storefront at street level retains its original configuration, although window area has been reduced. Locally designated district: 11/12/85.
