| Additional Information: | "Many of the houses of Look West were simple dwellings intended for workingmen and women and their families. One- and two-story houses with a variety of wings, or ells, and little ornamentation were a popular house type. Between 1876 and 1903 this was the home of Catherine and Margaret Dunphy, who were employed as dressmakers."
