This structure has been changed since it was nominated to the National Register, including aluminum siding, the removal of the original decorative front porch balustrade, and a rear addition. These changes alter the character of the house and would not be recommended if they were considered by the historic zoning commission, but occurred prior to historic designation. The changes being proposed with this certificate do not greatly alter the building, but are visible.
