Changes or Additions to Previous Descriptions: <br />The asbestos shingle siding and concrete foundation have been painted sage green. Windows are aluminum <br />sliders with white trim. The front door is now a red painted wood panel door with a fan light. The previous <br />inventory stated that an adjacent outbuilding was historically a Summer Kitchen. This information has not been <br />substantiated, but the outbuilding is now attached to the main house. It is painted green with white windows. <br />There is a non -historic shed at the west end of the property, opening east to the back yard. It has a gambrel <br />roof with gray asphalt shingles and vertically scored composition siding painted red. <br />Construction History: <br />Repairs were made to the house in 1978 under the auspices of the Louisville Urban Renewal Authority (LURA). <br />These included construction of a concrete retaining wall on the south wide, wrought iron porch posts and railing, <br />replacement of roofing, gutters, trim, window screens, painting, and interior electrical and plumbing work. The <br />windows and exterior door have been replaced since 2000. The original window openings were enlarged after <br />1950. <br />1 <br />
