Revival Styles, circa 1888 - 1925. Coded C.
With a few exceptions the Revival styles are expressed principally in detailing on commercial buildings, and in plan or roof forms in domestic structures. Frequently an ornamental pressed brick or metal cornice is the sole Revival feature on commercial/residential properties, the buildings otherwise maintain the standard planar, segmentally arched brick facades." ~ NRHP Nomination Form


"Residential (c. 1849 - 1930), Coded 3 This designation denotes fifteen buildings used only for residential purposes (all are detached, single-family except for two detached, multi-family), as well as numerous buildings which mix residential use with commercial and a few which are institutional/residential or industrial/residential and are doubled coded as such." ~ NRHP Nomination Form


Commercial . Coded With Black Bar
This designation indicates that historically the building (or part of it) was used for commercial purposes. Since very few properties were constructed exclusively for commerce, the black bar code at the of the property parcel generally refers to a first story storefront." ~ NRHP Nomination Form



"The building consists of a one-story component with a brick veneer that dates to c. 1980 and a two story brick component that was constructed between c. 1885 and 1892.

"The variegated brick veneer of the one-story 1980s portion has been extended across the first floor of the older building to create the appearance of a single storefront with the two internally connected. The façade of this storefront contains three non-historic picture window bays, a recessed entry, and a doorway with a jack arch that serves as a separate entrance to the two-story portion. The second floor of the two-story building retains its historic appearance with three segmental arched window bays containing one-over-one, double-hung sash windows, a corbelled cornice and a false side-gable roof with stepped parapet walls." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
