Summary

This small "four-plex flat" apartment building was constructed in 1929 by developer H. A. Wolf and designed by prominent Omaha architect Richard Everett. Impressive double-decker porches on the façade provide each of the four apartments with generous outdoor living space and represent a hallmark of the Sunlight and Air movement in multi-family residential design. In addition to its architectural significance, the building is also associated with community development and reflects the continued prominence of the Sherman Avenue / North 16th Street Streetcar Corridor in North Omaha.
