House

-A A +A
c. 1875. 601 Reed St.

An interestingly remodeled brick Italianate house, this building was given low-pitched wall dormers that have been thrust up from the wide entablature through the edge of the roof. Between the dormers is a narrow curved corner window similar to those on the nearby Hebard house. A veranda with wide arches and pilasters is carried across the front of the house.
