A gable-front house from the 1890s!

It was as if I had prompted an A.I. image generator to make me a picture of a gable-front house from the 1890s.

 

-----------------------

 

In Savannah, Georgia, on December 31st, 2023, was a house on the north side of Nicoll Street, east of Price Street, in the Savannah Historic District, a National Historic Landmark, 66000277 on the National Register of Historic Places.

 

The house appears to have been built in the 1890s, according to my review of Sanborn fire insurance maps on the Library of Congress website, and of city directories at ancestrylibrary.com.

 

According to the house's record at chathamtax.org, it had been sold to Affordable Properties LLC a few weeks before I snapped this pic.
