Appearance
This house was built in 1905 according to both the King County Property Record Card and the King County GIS Center Property Report.

The houses at 2414, 2518, and 2522 E. Howell Street are very similar in design and placement and are almost certainly all the work of the same designer and builder.

All of the windows appear to have been replaced with vinyl (or aluminum) units. The porch may have been rebuilt. The dormers appear to have been resided.
