This house also has been identified as 1530 Cowper Street. It may have been one of the generally described houses as being outside the city limits and built at a cost of $5 or $6,000. for example, the house for C.G. Baldwinn was listed as on Churchill between Cowper and
Waverley for $5,000 and the one for William Price on Embarcadero Road between Cowper and Webster for $6,000.
In 2016 it was sold by Tom Collins shortly after receiving a centennial plaque and the replacement home was built in 2018. The original home was considered potentially eligible for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources.
Built circa 1916 demolished
