Historic Name: Unknown Common Name: Style: Arts & Crafts - Craftsman Neighborhood: University Built By: Year Built: 1918   Significance Based on field work conducted in October 2014, this historic property retains its relationship to the streetscape, historic building form and a sufficient amount of exterior historic building fabric (design features, cladding and/or window sash/openings) to contribute to the distinct character of the University Park neighborhood. This is an altered but relatively intact historic property that may possess some limited architectural and/or historic significance.    Appearance This Craftsman bungalow has a side-gabled roof form with a prominent gabled roof dormer and a symmetrical facade. It has deep eaves, exposed rafter ends and knee braces. Its full width porch has center steps, square wood railings and a balustrade and a wide gabled porch roof.  The house is clad in narrow clapboard siding with coursed shingles in the roof dormer.
