The Tom Donlon House (1913)
Built ~1918* for Henry Meyer, may have been built by Thomas Carroll. This house is a two story shingle style Craftsman house that has Swiss chalet influences seen in the high pitched gable roof with recessed balcony and decorative carved brackets under front gable. The front porch has been enclosed and a pergola runs across the driveway on the south side of house. The upraised front yard is encircled by a concrete wall and wrought iron railing.
