History
The green brick house at No. 2429, was built for John Scanlon in 1885 and features a large projecting chamfered square bay, as well as interesting molded brick work over the windows and at the cornice.
Segmental arches over windows and doors are in a ball motif. Plain string courses wrap around building below first and second story windows (similar to Peter McCartney's work). (EHT Traceries)
