It is sitting on a poured concrete pad banked into the landscape.Constructed outside the period of significance, this 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.
