| Additional Information: | Photo code #2: 75BR-12/8 Example of the style with a three story tower placed in the juncture of the east and south facing ells. The main entrance is in the base of the tower and has double doors covered by an elaborate gable roofed entrance porch having turned colonettes with intact corner brackets supporting the roof. The tower has canted corners, is sided in clapboard, and is topped by a mansard roof. There is a denticulated cornice below the eaves of the tower roof and gable roofed dormers with elaborate window cases face west and south from the tower roof. There is a tri-lobe design in the gable end of the dormers. The front facing ell has a polygonal bay window on the first floor with panels of tongue and groove board below each window in the bay. The center window has an elaborate art glass transom lite. There is a fine rectilinear open porch above the bay window whose roof is formed by the overshot gable end above which is supported by elaborate turned colonettes. The gable end has a band of waved clapboard siding below the flat arched Palladian-style window group on the gable end. The rest of the gable end is sided in fishscale pattern wood shingles and the gable end has a elaborate decoration at its apex. The south facing ell has a canted first floor and a gable end treatment above which is identical to that of the front facing ell. All wall emenets are banded by wooden boards in a style founded during the Stick Style period. The Frisque house was built next to the earlier brick house (122/05) occupied by Frisque since 1881.
