Additional Comments

A 'site file' exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, State Historic Preservation Office. Previously surveyed in 1986. Broad overhanging eaves with paired bracket ornament; projecting wooden window cornices; round arched entrance and gable windows; one-bay open porches. This was the home of prominent physician F.B. Hoermann between c. 1885 and c. 1913. This house has some historical interest as the home of physician F.B. Hoermann. Initial research indicates that his career is not significant, therefore, this house does not meet the criteria for local historical significance. In the proposed historic district for this area, however, this house would be considered contributing to the overall historical significance of the district under criterion B, association with significant persons as a group. This building does not meet the criteria of the NRHP for architectural significance because of a lack of integrity. However, this building has sufficient architectural character to contribute to the proposed historic district.
