Exterior view of the home of John C. Spooner. The house is a Queen Anne style at the corner of Langdon and Henry Streets. The address was possibly 619 Henry, later replaced by the Spooner Apartments building. Elsewhere the address is given as 150 Langdon Street. 150 Langdon Street is the location of the Halle Steensland House built in 1892, and was there until at least 1927 when an addition was built.
