| Additional Information: | The Prospect Hill & Conrad Cottages Historic Districts: A Guide: "This clapboard-clad house is significant for its Civil War-era construction, and is an excellent example of the "gabled ell" form of building popular in Janesville in the 1850s and 1860s. Details are simple, including the peaked lintels above the large, regularly spaced windows. Michael Ott began working as a saddle and harness maker in Janesville in 1852 and established his own business in 1857. His shop was located at 67 N Main Street." |
