DescriptionViews of the exterior of a two-story house with a widow's walk, louvered shutters, and dormer windows. Walls appear to be coated with stucco. Vines grow on porches on front and back. The house is surrounded by trees and shrubs, including a hydrangea bush. Two photographs show laundry hanging on a rotary clothes line in the backyard. Others document the growth of a hedge in front of the house. In one photograph, snow is on the ground and trees and an automobile is parked by the side of the road in front of the house.
NotesSubject Note: According to an inscription on the cardboard backing of an old frame, "This house was built by Dr. Olmsted - yr. 1863"
