Matt Cohen 212 Lindley Place
Revision 1985
One of four impressive examples of the Bungalow style in the district attributed
to local carpenter J.H. Mimmack, this one may have been built as the residence
of Mimmack himself, and his wife Della Miffut-ack. The house is very similar to
208 Lindley next door, also attribute .to Miva ack. That house however, has lost
its massive stuccoed porch piers - once virtually identical to these. The signifi-
cance of this well preserved house is therefore increased, since it provides
a clue to the original appearance of that house. another of Mifnmack's Bungalows,
306 Lindley, may also originally have resembled this one,
