| Additional Information: | OTHER BUILDINGS ON SITE INCLUDE A MOTEL UNIT. This brick, foursquare residence appears to date to the 1920s, well before the establishment of the associated Bluebird Motel between 1952 and 1956. Although the structure currenly serves as the motel's office and proprietor's residence, it likely originally was a private, one-family residence. 2023: Replacement windows |
