Previous Recordings: Architectural Inventory Form 2000, as part of "Old Town" Louisville Historical Building <br />Survey by Carl McWilliams of Cultural Resource Historians. <br />8. Changes or Additions to Previous Descriptions: <br />Changes to construction history: <br />The previous inventory done in 2000 states that the building has had no additions subsequent to the original <br />construction, but this is clearly not the case. There are at least three episodes of construction that are visible <br />from physical evidence. Comparison of the current building with historic photographs demonstrates that an <br />original commercial false front roof parapet facing LaFarge has been removed. A shallow canopy roof over the <br />first floor windows facing LaFarge has been removed. The current gabled porch roof over the main entrance <br />was added at a later date. Historic photographs also appear to show a second -story door facing LaFarge, <br />perhaps providing access to a balcony on the canopy. All of this work took place at some time between 1946 <br />and the 1960s or 1970s. <br />1 <br />
