Additional Information: | Photo code #2: 74FD-31/34,35 This two and one half story Shingle style house features a steeply pitched gable roof. The upper story of the house is shingled and there is a broad gambrel on the front of the hosue that is also shingled. The lower story is covered with clapboards. A front porch consisting of grouped round columns, shingled balustrade, and shingled pediment covers most of the front facade of the building. Most openings rae single light sashes, but there are a number of decorative windows on the house as well, including two gothic-arched openings, an oval window, and a lunette. There is also a small oriel on the front facade. The shingled upper story, broad gables and horizontal emphasis of the house are all elements of the style. While not an elaborate example, this house is representative of how th style is often seen in Wisconsin. This was the home of P.B. Haber, a prominent local printer, between 1893-1926. This house is not historically significant at this time. |
