| Additional Information: | A 'site file' exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, State Historic Preservation Office. This structure contributes to the significance of the Nathan Strong Park Historic District under Criterion C as yet another example of the ubiquitous front-gabled, one and one-half story, Queen Anne cottage with built-in shingling enframing the gable window. This house type enjoyed a peculiar popularity in Berlin and this is one of at least a dozen similar examples suggesting the work of a single builder. In spite of the vinyl siding now covering the clapboard, the house retains its identifying characteristics and ornamental features including its Ionic Order front porch. |
