February 1982

An interesting variation on the Triple A cottage with rear wing / porch that likely housed at least one another apartment. Sometime between 1982 and 1995, the house was majorly remuddled, and divorced from its previous character - probably by the same person who did a similar re-work to 513 Jackson.

From 1997-2012, it has been a 5- or 6- plex, housing various transitional half, quarter, or less-way residents, and just plain apartments.

2012 (G. Kueber)

The house was torn down in 2018 as part of a large-scale townhouse development in this block.

I believe Winston Moore also owned this place, my ex told me he was living  on Gordon St. back in the 90s.
