NOTES
Additional Information:Projecting wooden triangular shaped window heads; enclosed front ell porch. William Borkenhagen lived here c. 1900. He was a tailor. Henry Borkenhagen, a canvassar, lived here between c. 1907 and c.1919. Initial research indicates that none of the occupants of this house are historically significant either individually, or as a group within the historic district. This house does not meet the criteria of the NRHP for architectural significance because of a lack of integrity. However, the house has sufficient architectural character to contribute to the historic district.
