Landmarks report notes 744 Kelly Street lost its cornice but kept its shingled roof
The 1980 Longwood designation report praised the stonework of Nos. 742 and 744, a three-story pair built to an 1899 Dickerson design, with shouldered third-story window frames and molded band courses. It regretted that the original cornice had been taken off, but noted that the sloping mansard roof still carried its original shingles.
“Unfortunately, the original cornice has been removed, but the houses are crowned by a sloping mansard roof that retains its original shingles.”
