Additional Comments
This 2 1/2 story queen anne duplex was constructed in 1892. It is rectangular in plan with a concrete and stone foundation, brick walls and an asphalt shingled gable roof. The front elevation faces northwest and is asymmetrical in plan with paired entrances at the south end and a projecting 3-sided, 2- story bay as the north end. The bay is topped by a front gabled roof with a small multi-pane attic window under the gable. The roof of the rest of the building is side gabled with a small dormer projecting at the attic level. The dormer window and all first and second story windows are 1 over 1 double hung. The front doors are accessed via a concrete stoop with metal hand railings.
