2. 1908

   Built by the Parkside Realty Company as one of 62 near-identical cottages put up across seven blocks to bring the first residents into the new district — about 800 square feet on one storey, two bedrooms and a bath, sold with a choice of six façade treatments over a single plan. All but one of the group was still standing a century later, almost all of them raised over a basement garage in the meantime.
