OHD Notes


From the National Register: "Thomas J. Gordon, a farmer and merchant, purchased this lot in September of 1909 and constructed a house on it soon thereafter. That house, which was partially destroyed by fire in 1925, was a large Classical Revival one with a colossal portico at front. As reconstructed, the house received a tin-shingled cross-gable roof in place of its high hipped one and the colossal portico was removed. A gabled vent replaced a large dormer. The second floor fenestration was also changed to an asymmetrical arrangement of window strips. The first floor of the house is largely intact, including a u-shaped porch with fluted Ionic columns. The oval-glazed front door has a leaded glass transom and sidelights. There are also stained glass windows on the front and west side."
