Additional Information: | This two-story American Foursquare house has a hip roof with wide overhanging eaves. A gable-roofed dormer projects from the front of the roof. The house is stucco-covered. The front porch consists of square wood posts on limestone piers and a plain balustrade. This house is a good example of a simple variation of the American Foursquare form. This was the home of William Georg, a shoe store owner, between 1913 and 1921. Initial research indicates that the occupants of this house are not historically significant. |
