The influence of the shingle style can be seen in the shingled second story, the massive shingled gables with their plain wall treatments and in the arcaded fenestration in the gable facing Franklin Street and the inset false loggia with its latticed window sash and bowed column screen. Owned by Lawrence University. Additional map codes are: 7/26. Garage. |
