ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRITY: <br />The building was constructed prior to 1927, and has maintained integrity. The structure <br />has undergone several expansions, but has maintained its overall form. The roof form <br />is a front gable, with a lower gable over the front porch, half of which has been <br />enclosed. The front door and southern window appear to be in the original location and <br />size. The County Assessor's sketch appears to indicate the addition on the south side <br />was added in 1950. The siding is stucco, as it appears to have been in 1948. The roof <br />material is non - original asphalt shingle. Overall, the form and some window openings <br />have been maintained, giving it fairly strong integrity. <br />HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE AND CRITERIA FOR FINDING PROBABLE CAUSE <br />FOR LISTING AS LOCAL LANDMARK: <br />To receive grant funding, the HPC must find probable cause that the property meets the <br />landmark criteria.
