| 607 W. Pennsylvania is a typical Tudor Revival house that was built in 1925. The house is constructed of multi-colored brick and a stone foundation. The stone seems to grow out of the foundation and melds together in an irregular pattern with the brick, which is a contrast to the straight horizontal line usually formed between the foundation and the wall cladding. The main entrance is below a recessed arch which is accented with stone quoins. The main façade is dominated by a steeply-pitched cross gable roof with asymmetrical flared eaves. The wall surface of the main gable is projected slightly forward than the rest of the wall surface, which is topped with a hipped roof. There is a shift in the brick detailing at the apex of the main gable and on the top half of the second story on the main façade. There is a band, or string course, of dark brown vertically placed brick which divides the façade. 607 W. Pennsylvania has tall, thin, multi-paned casement windows grouped in horizontal rows. A dormer window is present on the west side of the house. Overall, 607 W. Pennsylvania is a very common example of a Tudor Revival house. |
