104-5144-0027 Medical Business/Office, Stories 2.00, Style: Late 19th and Early 20th C. American Movement, 1925 After purchasing the lot from George B. Colgan in 1922, J. Adam Early and his wife Ruth constructed this two-story, two-bay, hipped-roof, brick American Foursquare in 1925. Like A. A. Gibson, the original owner of 419 Lexington, Early was also a brakeman. The two-bay, common bond facade is approached via three wooden steps on the north bay of the east-facing facade or a modern ramp with wooden balustrade that ascends from the southern end of the facade. Three square Tuscan columns support the full-width porch, which has a simple wooden balustrade and entablature. The glass door is located in the north bay of the facade and is complimented by a tri-part window in the south bay topped by a flat arch. The 2nd story bays feature paired three/one-sash windows. A hipped-roof dormer with three casement windows is located at the center of the asphalt shingle-covered roof, while a brick chimney is visible on the southern side of the building. A small, one-story porch flush to the north elevation extends the rear of the building. Individual Resource Status: Medical Business/Office Contributing Total: 1
