NOTES
Additional Information:2348 N. 25th Street is a Model 6B, "..a two story, symmetrically-composed, side-gabled cottage featuring a large, flat-roofed front porch that stretches across much of the facade, sheltering a central front entry door flanked by two double-hung windows. A grouping of three square wooden posts supporting the porch roof at each outside corner is trimmed with a wooden latticework. The perimeter of the porch roof is trimmed with a cross-buck design wood railing. The fenestration of the second story consists of two bays of paired, double-hung windows trimmed with board shutters. The other elevations are simply composed of randomly-placed windows and a door that respond to interior needs." 2465 W Congress Street is a Model 6G, "..a two-story, side gabled cottage that typically features a side-entry. The main elevation facing the street is symmetrically composed of two basement sash windows and two bays of paired, double-hung sash windows on both the first and second stories. The main entry porch, identical to the one already described under Model 6B, is located on the front half of the side elevation. The porch is balanced by a single double-hung window located on the rear half of the elevation. The second story features two regularly-placed, double-hung windows. The other elevations are simply composed and feature randomly placed windows that respond to interior needs." "Located on a corner lot, this double-house has been aluminum-sided, but retains its original porches and fenestration." (A).
