"Following the construction of these early houses, real estate activity within the District was virtually dormant until the mid-185Os when Dutch-born Henry Tibbe and his son Anton. local corn cob Pipe manufacturers, began purchasing land along Cedar Street. Soon after, both erected homes there which ushered in new stylish house designs and set a standard for the street. In 1885, Henry Tibbe constructed a large, brick Queen Anne house at the southeast corner of Cedar and Fourth (318 W. Fourth. photo #3, left foreground) on a one acre parcel stretching from Cedar to Elm Streets." ~ NRHP Nomination Form

"Revival Styles. 1385-1941. Coded C ; Photos #1 through #1O). "This group of twenty-one buildings represents nearly two-thirds of the total District count. Fourteen are Queen Anne, four are Colonial Revival, and there is one example each of the following styles: Neoclassical, Tudor, and a mixed revival vocapulary. The District's four frame buildings are within the Queen Anne Revival group. All of the Revival buildings rise two or two and one-half stories except for three brick one or one and one-half story houses. Queen Anne houses exhibit most of the major stylistic characteristics associated with the style: irregular plan-shapes with set-backs, or projecting wings or bays; hipped roofs with asymmetrically placed front and side gables, or full-width front gable roofs; asymmetrical façades often punctuated with towers or bays; one-story front porches; and tall chimneys. Several of the houses also display exuberant detailing commonly found in the style: Eastlake incised panels, elaborated wood bracketed or corbelled brick cornices, filigree corner brackets, roof finials, prominent façade gables enriched with trusses, sunbursts or patterned wood shingles. Three frame houses - 309, 315, and 413 Cedar - display overhanging front gables. A few of the later (circa 1905-1910] Queen Anne houses take up a free classic subtype defined principally by the use of classically detailed corones and more restrained massing."
