Original Description (transcribed from book)

This small double house is unusually elaborate considering its small size. The Italianate cornice and galvanized window trim are notable. The porch on 305 has lost its rail but the porches are otherwise intact. 305 ½ retains its picket fence.

Original Note (transcribed from book)

The Three Hundred Block of Marshall Street contains a large number of pre-Civil War houses, some of which have been altered in unusual ways.
