The house

In 1905 the directory lists F. W. Stone, a blind mfg'r.

In 1915 the directory lists Timothy E O'Neil.

From 1925 to 1945 the Granger name is in three directories in a row (printed “Granger I L” and “Granger Miss I L”): I L Granger, in 1925. The directory marks the name with *: some member of the family owns the property, to the best of its knowledge.

After 1945 we don't show residents' names: in 1955 the directory lists one household.

Today

The address is still in use, but the City's record dates the building to 1992: the house in these directories is gone.
