In my neighborhood and part of the contributing buildings in our National Historic District. I have also included our own house, which the National Register describes as "unique." What a hoot.

As for the contributing home, the following is what the register reports in their building inventory: Queen Anne influence is evident in this 3-bay front-gabled house with side entry and rear cross-wings. Walls are running-bond brick laid with knife-edge joints. The architectural integrity of the house is excellent. (Although I may add that since this inventory was written, the shutters and paint have suffered.)
