Description
General Description
The one-story shed is constructed of wood frame clad in vertical-board siding. It is covered by a side-gabled roof with a boxed cornice. The roof is supported on the primary elevation by round metal posts, allowing the building to have a U-shaped form. 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, it has been recommended as non-contributing.
