Additional Information: | Two story gable roofed south bay; decorative shingles and cornice returns in gable ends; full length open porch with dentil trim; stained glass window. This was the home of Arthur Dieter, the president of the Watertown Laundry, between c. 1919 and c. 1936. This house has some historical interest as the home of laundry owner Arthur Dieter. 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. This house does not meet the criteria of the NRHP for architectural significance because of a lack of integrity. However, this house has sufficient architectural character to meet the criteria for historical significance. |
