    Warren C. Dickerson designs 1126 Jackson Avenue in a row of five houses for Thomas Quinn

    In 1900 architect Warren C. Dickerson drew Nos. 1124-1132 Jackson Avenue for developer Thomas Quinn, at an estimated $6,000 a house. No. 1126 has a curved bay, a pair of pedimented roof dormers and plain molded frames around its second-story windows. Its doorway has a square-headed surround with a bracketed shelf lintel, one beat in the group's alternating rhythm of entrances.

    “Nos. 1126 and 1130 have curved bays, paired pedimented roof dormers, and simple molded full surrounds at the second story windows.”
