1985 revision
Matt Cohen, surveyor
One of the several houses in the district built in the 1930' s on a site
for which a sewer permit was signed by George P. Dier in 1919, this house is a
significant element in the streetscape, but of minor individual
significance. The house may have replaced an earlier structure on this site,
for H. McLeod Everse, Manager of the Montana Flour Mills Co. , is listed
as living at this address in 1927 - a date which is probably earlier than
the date of construction. The front tripartite window may be a later
addition.
