| Additional Information: | Third Lake Ridge Historic District: A Walking Tour. 1987: "The Madison architectural firm of Claude (Louis W.) and Starck (Edward F.) were in partnership between 1896 and 1929. They designed these two houses in period revival styles. For G. P. Miler, president of the G. P. Miller Lumber Company, they created a half-timbered Tudor revival design. For George Mason, president of the Mason Donaldson Lumber Company, they created a Georgian revival house of red brick trimmed with limestone." Julius Rehder, a fairly well-known German painter who moved to the US in 1940, lived in that house for a period of time. |
