History

The white brick house at No. 2431 features a plaque indicating that Peter McCartney built the house for owner John Casey in 1881.

In 1983, the house had simple molded framing around the windows and doors with an elaborate arcaded brick cornice (suggesting a Moorish appearance) with parallel bring string cornice just below. It has a first-story polygonal bay. The Bay features double hung windows on first floor with two windows above. (EHT Traceries)
