This 2-car garage has a concrete foundation and board-and-batten walls. The west half is 2-stories while the east half is a single story. The peak of the front-gabled roof is centered on the 2-story portion and continues downward over the 1-story section in a saltbox form. Opening onto the alley on the south side of the lot, the paneled metal overhead doors have four 4-light glazed openings, and in the upper half story of the façade is a 1/1 vinyl window." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
