Charles Maass bought a small house on this site, enlarged it, and lived in it for several years.1<\/sup>\u00a0The front gable with Palladian window and cross gable over a bay window were features repeated in houses he would design over the next few years, such as the Weir and Ulseth<\/a> houses. Maass\u2019s house has a Jacobsville sandstone foundation, clapboards on the first floor, and wood shingles on the second. The porch across the front has Ionic columns.<\/p>\n
