1904 - The three houses (709 - 713 - 717) were built at or about this time. They originally were
identical. The style is Victorian Folk with front gable - cross gable construction. Distinguishing
features are the pent roof board across the front gable at the eave, the triple windows on the
gable and on the first floor with simple window surrounds and block trim. The brick foundation is
exposed on three side and with the slop of the land forms a full story walkout basement. The
porches were originally Queen Anne turned posts with cut spindle work. The porches under the
principle roof are unusual.
