| Additional Information: | Locally designated 7/12/83. The Friedberg House is similar in height, massing, and materials to 1119 East Knapp, but the facade ornamentation has been removed. The house is otherwise almost a twin to 1119 East Knapp, although the porch is somewhat different in design. To the rear a large two-story addition with a gambrel roof was built in 1925 and designed by architect, Alexander Eschweiler. Individuals associated with this house include Joseph Friedberg (1887 to 1894), G.W. Shepard (1895 to 1899), C.A. Maynard (1900 to 1902), E.N. Dickson (1903 to 1907) Ellis B. Usher (1908 to an unknown date), and William A. Chester (1920 to 1940). |
