Notes
  • Significance: John V. Handwerker had this small Victorian playhouse built for his children in the 1890s. It was modelled after the stables which also stood on the property. Much enlarged with additions in 1904 and 1928, the little building has served commercial functions since 1904. Today it stands deserted and isolated. The original portion of the house was of a sophisticated design, employing details and materials found in and on larger Victorian frame buildings.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-33
  • Survey number: HABS TN-169
