Architectural Style: Italianate (North American architecture styles) Original Description \(transcribed from book\): An Italianate house on a raised basement, this has a wooden porch that contributes to the character of this house. The first floor windows have been altered, but the house maintains all the general characteristics of the Italianate townhouse. Original Note \(transcribed from book\): The 00 Block of East Clay Street forms a buffer against commercial intrusion into the residential portions of Jackson Ward. It contains a number of fine houses with very fine cast iron porches, but its lack of street trees damage the desired residential character.
