This very unusual Bungalow style house relates to its elevated corner
lot with a large, recessed, wrap-around corner porch. The various
parts of the porch, such as the rail , square columns, and piers, are
executed in brick, while wood would be far more typical . The house
was built for Harry H. Howard, manager of the Chronicle Publishing
Co. By 1933, he had moved and Cornelies F. Ritter, a painter, had
moved in.
