| Additional Information: | Two story rear side porch; double leafed entrance door with overlight; gable ornaments; arched brick window hoods with corbelled ends; two sided porch with flat roof, Ionic columns and balustrade; rectangular south bay window. This was the home of Carl Emmerling, who went from foreman to manager at the Fleishman Malting Company Plant, when he lived here between c. 1900 and c. 1930. The Fleishman Malting Company began as the William Buchheit Malting Company in 1888 and manufactured malt for the brewing industry. This house has some historical interest as the home of Carl Emmerling, factory manager. Initial research indicates that his career is not significant, therefore, this house does not meet the criteria for local historical significance. In the proposed historic district for this area, however, this house would be considered contributing to the overall historical significance of the district under criterion B, association with significant persons as a group. |
