Regarding F. Riley House. Excerpt from the Ohio Historic Inventory form on this property:

Original portion consists of 1½ story, brick structure on a stone foundation, simple window & door architraves and stone sills. Shed dormers and frame additions on south and east sides were built later.

The 1½ story rectangular form was quite common in Dublin and was used for both residences and shops. Examples of this type of building in stone, brick and wood frame still exist.
