T.E. Allen House. Constructed for T.E. Allen, owner of an insurance agency by the same name. Allen's son, George, earned a national reputation as ambassador to Greece and as "the Voice of America." 

Constructed around 1904, this Neo- Colonial house is the largest and most imposing of the handsome group of early 20th-century houses that line Lamond Ave. Composite porch columns, multiple rooflines, polygonal bays, and sawn brackets originally were augmented by an elaborate display of stained glass in each of the windows that is now filled with lattice work. The front door transom and sidelights formerly were filled with leaded glass.
