NOTES
Additional Information: ALTHOUGH THIS BUILDING HAS BEEN RESIDED, ITS FORM AND REMAINING DETAILS (GABLE ORNAMENT AND CANOPIES OVER BEVELED CORNERS), REFLECT ITS QUEEN ANNE HERITAGE. OTHER FEATURES OF THE TWO STORY STRUCTURE INCLUDE AN IRREGULAR PLAN CONFIGURATION AND AN IRREGULAR ROOF. THE SHARP ANGLE OF THE GABLE ROOF AND THE BEVELED CORNERS COMBINE TO FORM THE SHAPE OF AN ARROW ON THE FRONT FACADE. THIS C. 1890 BUILDING IS CONSIDERED TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. (A)
