Description and history

It is a 2-story, Mediterranean Revival style house with an irregular floor plan. It rests on a concrete foundation and has exterior walls of stucco. Most of the house is covered with hipped roof segments, surfaced with clay barrel tiles. A few areas of the roof are flat due to its extensive use of built-up roofing material. Scuppers are placed right below the roof line at intervals around the house.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 21, 1997.


gollark: You can actually create, manage and build Rust projects with simple tooling which works easily and without horrible issues, and (almost?) every library uses the same stuff so you can interoperate trivially.
gollark: While strictly speaking you can use Rust and even `rustc` without `cargo`, having it as a first-class thing is EXTREMELY NICE.

gollark: I honestly *do not understand* why people thought they were better ways to do things than *nice* tools like, say, `cargo`.
gollark: I've had to try and compile some programs using the GNU build tools, and they seem like horrible hacks.
