    G. X. Mathews built 1871 Madison Street in 1913 from a design by R. George Smart, one of a row of seven buildings. Its pale yellow brick front rests on an amber-brick base, with a carved limestone doorway under a pedimented, bracketed hood. The 2010 designation report found the building still had its historic bluestone stoop and railing, and an areaway railing, newel posts and gate with every detail intact.

    “…historic bluestone stoop and railing; ... historic areaway railing, newel posts, and gate with all details intact…”
