Residence in Forest Grove

Photograph of a two story house located at the Northeast corner of A Street and Third Avenue North (23rd Avenue). The front porch goes across the front with the entry bumped out. There is a small gable above the front door area and a large gable in front on the second story. Another gable is on the right side along with an entry door on the side porch. The porch supports are embellished with intricate Victorian style trim. There is a chair on the front porch and two hitching posts just past the sidewalk in the front yard. The right side yard is higher than the street and there is a curb possibly 12 inches tall on this side and looks to be made of rough concrete. The street is packed dirt. There are boards that extend from the sidewalk to the curb at intervals. The sidewalk is of unknown material, wood or concrete. There is a second house on the left with three white columns that go from the front porch to the over hang of the attic above the second story. The second story also has a porch facing the front yard. The sidewalk ends at the first house and does not extend to this house.
