About the construction

Description
This cross gable Queen Anne house has fish scale shingles in the broken pediment gables, a one story porch with corbelling and brackets around the roof line, and decorative railing on the porch. A new porch and deck attach to the rear. This frame house has an ashlar foundation.
Date Of Construction
ca. 1880
Context
This house is significant primarily for its Queen Anne features such as the fish scale shingles in the gables, front porch entry area, and decorative trim. It appears to be a duplicate of the house at 102 W. McKay, however, there has been less exterior alteration. One of its occupants in the 1940s, Esther Landwehr, was the author of a book entitled The Lord's Prayer. Ms. Landwehr graduated from Saline High School and Cleary College.
