From the National Register nomination
Two-story Craftsman duplex of stretcher brick-veneer frame construction with an asphalt-shingled hip roof with shed dormers with brackets and wood-shingle siding. The dual one-story front entry porches have tapered posts on brick pedestals, square-section balusters, exposed rafter ends, wood-shingled gables, and aluminum awnings. Other features include exterior brick chimneys with convex or quarter-round shoulders, 4/1 and some 2/1 windows, and inset one-story porches at both back corners. The duplex is identical to 717-719 Eleventh, located next door. Both were built by Jake Fisher as rental properties. 721 was occupied by Earl M. Bishop in 1935 and 723 by Frank P. White.
