Architectural Style: Federal; Italianate (North American architecture styles) Original Description \(transcribed from book\): This is one of the earliest houses on the street and was built by Isaac Goddin in 1820-21. It was later owned by James Taylor and has been altered in a very interesting way. The small house was doubled in size and changed from a Federal style farmhouse into an Italianate villa. The triple windows, typical of the Federal style, were later joined as arch Italian windows. Original Note \(transcribed from book\): This Block contains the finest collection of residential cast iron porches in the state. This was once a most stylish block and contains large Italianate houses in addition to a sprinkling of Greek Revival residences.
