1862 Woodbine Street's cornice has been stuccoed over and stripped of ornament by 2010
The 2010 designation report notes that the cornice of 1862 Woodbine had been stuccoed over and every detail removed. The house kept its bluestone stoop and railing and its areaway railing, but its stonework was resurfaced, vinyl windows were installed, and a paneled door with sidelight and transom replaced the original entry.
