104-0213-0087 Primary Resource Information: Single Dwelling, Stories 2.00, Style: Other, ca 1880 This 2-story, 2-bay, side-passage-plan, gable-roofed brick building is laid in a 7-course American-with-Flemish bond on the front and 7-course American bond on the sides and rear. The building is two bays wide on the first floor and one bay wide at the second, with the window opening on the second floor lining up with the window on the first floor. The gabled roof is clad in standing-seam metal with an interior-end brick chimney, and the double-hung wood windows have 6/6-sash. Constructed ca. 1880, the house features a single transom over the door, overhanging eaves with a boxed cornice, and a split-level brick foundation. The 3-bay, full-width, shed-roofed front porch has square posts and a 3-rail balustrade. A 1-story, gable-roofed brick wing extends to the south. The 1-bay wing has an integral front porch that has been enclosed with weatherboarding. The house is nearly identical to the house located at 204 7th Street (104-213-0086), although this one has a side brick wing and an interior brick chimney.
