Description

3 3/8"h x 5 1/8"w black and white photo of the Frank Abell apartments. The building used to be the Meredith Lumber Company. It is a large gable roofed building with medium clapboard siding and white trim; the gable end faces the street. A hipped roof porch has been added onto the gable end and around onto the long side of the building. It is four bays on the gable end and three bays on the side. There is a single small chimney on the roof peak which helps to support a television antenna. There is a louver right at the peak of the gable end. There are two pairs of six over six double hung windows on the second floor, each with an air conditioner. The small windows on the long wall are up close to the eaves. On the first floor gable end there are two doors and two windows to create two apartments. Trees obscure the view of the long side. One door is visible and a few small windows. There is parking in front and on the side and a broken wood fence between the lot and the street. ********************************** Text on verso: in black ink "Meredith Lumber Co. now Frank Abell Apts." and in blue stamp ink "Kodalux Nov 1993"
