7. Narrative Description:
This property is located in the Jackson Park Historic District. StyleNear: post-1891, Gothic (dormer
windows), Second Empire (single fayade Mansard roof plane with dormers), this fayade is virtually
identical to the design used on the Howie block, 260-80 West 17th Street. The only difference is the
omission of light colored brick on the window arches. This would have been termed "modified Gothic"
when built. The brick arches of interest, the ground level arches are triple rowlock courses, those
above just two courses.
Physical Description: two-story brick duplex with mansard attic front, flanking gabled dormers and a
large steeply pitched central gable roof through cornice dormer. The plan is that of a broad rectangle.
Single entries are paired and centered with four-light transoms. Of particular interest is the use of
combination corbels/wood brackets to support the dormer, and the use of a white brick to shadow the
bases of the brackets on the cornice. A full-width bracketed brick cornice has metal cornice caps on
either side of the dormer. Raised stone foundation and water table.
Alterations: hip roof porch removed, replaced with concrete stoop and metal fence, windows replaced.
Permits note re-roofing in 1963, 1983 (also soffits, interior remodeling, $30,000), stoop (no date).
Landscaping/Setting: level parcel, fronts south.
