Located at 212 West King Street, this towered landmark forms the architectural entryway to the historic West Augustine neighborhood. Built in the 1880s for a pioneer railroad man, it was enlarged with an added tower a century ago and became the house of a prominent physician. The current owner’s application to tear it down was denied for a one year waiting period to determine if there was local interest in saving structure. To date no one has stepped forward to help save it and its survival is in question. |
