About the construction

Description
This two story gable end Folk house is reminiscent of the I-House which emerged after the advent of the railroad, although it could not be determined if this house is one room deep as is typical of the I-House. The fenestration is unusual in that the six front bays are asymmetrical, with an offset front porch.There is a shed roof addition on the back, and a flat roof garage attached to the east facade. The house has aluminum siding, a center chimney on the ridgeline, and a plastered over foundation
Date Of Construction
ca. 1870
Context
Both the history and the original style of architecture of this house remain elusive. The 1912, 1921, and 1929 Sanborn maps show this structure as a two family dwelling which is confirmed by the multiple listing of names in the 1941 city directory. The 1947 assessor's file indicates that the house once had imitation brick exterior walls which were covered with siding in 1948. It also had a Michigan basement.The house appears on the 1872 Birds Eye map and the 1888-1929 Sanborn maps.
