" ... The next year Anton built 405
Cedar, a mere modest house, but a rare domestic example in Washington
of Urbanistic Second Empire styling." ~ NRHP Nomination Form, PDF page 7
Italianate/Second Empire. 1886. Coded B, (Photo 03. 2nd from right).
405 Elm [should read 405 Cedar, 405 Elm modern structure & is Non-Contributing] is the only District building which exhibits Second Empire
features; Its mansard roof is a rare example In Washington's domestic
architecture. The Italianate corbelled brick cornice, on the other
hand, is not uncommon. The scrolled window surround on the large
mansard dormer suggests Queen Anne influence." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
