| Appearance |
A second structure was apparently built on the site in 1932; however, this structure was not observed by the surveyor.
This house was built in 1900 according to both the King County Property Record Card and the King County GIS Center Property Report.
There was an early single story addition at the back of the structure in 1937. The structure has been converted from duplex use to single family use. The building form was substantially altered, and the siding was covered or replaced with concrete asbestos shakes, in the latter half of the twentieth century (the metal fire escape at the south elevation was in place by 1937). The structure was being renovated when the property was surveyed in 2008. The owner indicated at the time that he intended to return the structure to its appearance in 1937. The porch structure was being replaced but with a second level railing much deeper than the original. Many of the original windows were being replaced in kind or rebuilt and reinstalled. Some of the original siding was being retained, but where this was not possible or where the siding was missing, it was being replaced in kind.
