Original Description (transcribed from book)
This is a small Italianate house with its original cornice intact. Its porch was altered in the 1920's but this was sensitively handled and does not disrupt the character of the house.
Original Note (transcribed from book)
St. James Street - This small street derives its character from the Addolph Dill house. Dill's house, orginally erected in the middle of Foushee Street, makes through traffic impossible. St. James is a narrow residential street enclosed by the large mass of the Dill house.
