Changes...


In 1926, the home was sold to Cecil and Ruth Robertson. In the 1930s, the carriage house and wall surrounding the property were constructed from stone salvaged from E.P. Bassford’s Saint Paul City Hall, demolished in 1932. Also in the 1930s, the porches on either side of the front entry were removed along with the balustrades above the entry and on the widow’s walk. (Note: picture shown is circa 1973.)

In the 1980s, the second floor of the carriage house was remodeled into an apartment by the fourth owner.
