Charles A. Byars pur¬chased this lot in 1902 from the Drumm Seed and Floral Co. for whom he worked as a nursery foreman. Byars had this house built in 1904 with lumber and materials pur¬chased from William Cameron & Co., Inc. This one-story Queen Anne style house is unaltered, except for the pink asbestos shingles covering the main body of the house. The house has a T-plan with a forward projecting gable which has patterned shingles in the gable end. Adjacent to the gable is a half porch with elaborate turned columns and delicate fretwork. Alfred Autrey, who worked for Charles Byars as a florist, was a long time tenant.
