This building was changed a great deal in the years prior to designation, and has been poorly maintained since. It has recently sold to a developer who intends to bring the building in conformance with housing codes and sell it to an owner/occupant. The side porch/deck will cover an excavated site on the south side of the house that was formerly a garage, removing a hazard. A railing with turned spindles would surround the deck.
