"This dwelling is part of the development along Fifth Street which
began in the early 1800's when it first became a major east/west
thoroughfare in Washington. A 2-story masonry dwelling is shown on this lot on the 1926 Sanborn map. The dwelling with a 1-story
wood frame outbuilding this lot is shown on the 1916 Sanborn map.
This lot is not shown on the earlier Sanborn maps. A building is

According to the 1919 atlas, it is on the eastern portion of Lot 3 of
Uhlenbrock's Addition." ~ Washington Historic Survey past 1, Phase IV, page 443
