A fine example of the Bungalow style with a jerkin head roof typical of the
19301s, this house was probably built by Lou Sievert, as were 512 and 514 N. Tracy
next to it. The earliest occupant was apparently Cecil L. Sievert, also a carpenter
and probably a relative of Lou F. Sievert. Cecil Sievert lived here into the
1940's and may have had a hand in the building of the house.
