”419 Locust, The Kids School, Stick-Eastlake, Ca. 1885
A Stick-Eastlake house with flared eaves and an arched gable bracket, vertical siding under the eaves, and a symmetrical configuration of the ground floor porch and bay. The octagonal porch columns with arched brackets and a cut out balustrade are the best feature.

[Architectural Significance as an Example of its Style:] Excellent.”
