Description
General Description
Set on a raised metal platform with metal rails and steps, the metal exhaust fan is a square structure with louvered vents. Constructed outside the period of significance, this utilitarian structure does not reflect the areas of significance defined for the Home, nor does it reflect the architectural traditions expressed at the Home since its establishment. Therefore, the structure has been recommended as non-contributing.
