    Building 16 gets its clapboard siding, trim and open front porch restored

    A 1985 restoration brought back the house's clapboard siding, its trim of quarter-sawn wood and its open front porch, which helps it keep its nineteenth-century character. The building is a two-story, L-shaped wood-frame house with decorative brackets under the eaves and a porch with scrollwork across the east front.
