Platt Cohen, surveyor
This very simple, 1-story Bungalow is typical of those built by Guy
A. Ensinger, a local carpenter of the early 20th century. (This one may be
one of the five noted in a 1917 article in the American Builder magazine, see
district statment of significance. ) The house was occupied in 1927, and
possibly earlier, by J. Herbert Howell , who ran a small grocery at 614
W. Dickerson St. Howell later ran the College Hill Grocery, 602 S. 7th.
Ave. , and probably built that small structure on the lot adjoining this one
to the rear.
