The house today
1134 Odlum Drive still has a building from before 1946, as does 1128 next door; the City's record dates it to 1910, before the 1912 map was drawn, so it is very likely F, one of the eight small wood-frame houses Goad's 1912 map draws on one lot (inferred).
The 1100 block in 1940
Odlum Drive, on the stretch it shares with the 1000 and 1200 blocks, between Parker and Charles Streets, Grandview-Woodland: every door the 1940 directory lists on the block, the way it prints them, and what stands at each today. This house is marked in red.
