House

-A A +A
c. 1860s. 320 Jefferson St. W.

An expansive hood with sawed wood ends covers the first-floor windows of this two-story brick late Italianate house. The wood brackets of the roof and the sawed work of the gable ends are equally elaborate. The flat-roofed section between the two wings seems ready to receive a tower.
