Jacks House – Avenue H

A large wood frame bungalow clad in false bevel drop siding, this house has a low pitched gable roof with heavy triangular brackets and an intersecting rear gable. A smaller gabled portico supported by brick piers is superimposed on the main front gable. This area was developed by the College Heights Land Co. in 1914. The house was built for Howard E. Jacks, an electrician, in 1919 and passed through several owners after Jacks sold it in 1922.
