These eight nearly identical wood-framed houses each have a shotgun plan and gabled roof. Each has a concrete stoop porch covered by a metal awning with wrought-iron posts. Although city directories list some of these addresses as early as 1907, the row was probably newly constructed in 1937; the tax assessor’s abstract mentions eight improvements on the site at a cost of $275.38 each, a feasible cost of construction for a shotgun house in 1937 (see 1002-06 E. Cannon Avenue/701-05 New York Avenue). With more precise documentation, or upon the attainment of 50 years of age, the row may be eligible for the National Register as an example of working-class housing, incorporating a traditional folk house type. These resources have been demolished.
