Summary for 3018 E CHERRY ST E / Parcel ID 5366200290 / Inv # 0

Historic Name: Common Name: Style: American Foursquare - Craftsman Neighborhood: Madrona Built By: Year Built: 1905   Significance This is a example of Craftsman detailing applied to an American Foursquare design. The structure’s design integrity has been somewhat compromised by minor alterations and the replacement of several windows. This is one of approximately 2,200 houses that are still extant out of more than 5,000 that were built by the end of 1906 in Seattle’s Central Area, Eastlake, First Hill, Leschi, Madison Park, Madrona, and North Capitol Hill neighborhoods. A complete permit history, and a complete record of ownership and occupation have not yet been prepared for this property. BIBLIOGRAPHY King County GIS Center Property Report (http://www5.kingcounty.gov/kcgisreports/property_report.aspx; accessed August 18, 2008) King County Property Record Card (c. 1938-1972) Washington State Archives   Appearance The exposed rafter tails and the heavy pier and bracing at the original entry porch identify this structure as an example of the Craftsman style applied to a foursquare scheme. This house was built in 1905. The porch appears to have been partially enclosed at some point following 1937 (2/3 of porch was in use as a sun room from an even earlier date). Windows have been replaced at several openings, particularly at the sun room. The carport appears to be a modern addition to the site.
