South Main 1880's "Eastlake" House
Nice brick home off South Main with so-called "Eastlake" ornament inside and out thus identifying it as likely from the 1880's when such ornament was very popular. "Eastlake" ornament on this side of the Atlantic (named after English tastemaker Charles L. Eastlake) tended to be geometric based and often abstract. It pre-dated the stylized Art Deco forms of the 1920's and '30's but more than 40 years yet has a lot in common with this later decorative style.
