historically important gothic style 19th century original henry rohkam house exterior terra cotta fence assembly

the house is located at 1048 w. oakdale, on what's commonly referred to as "terra cotta row," where other executives of the company followed suit by erecting homes punctuated with terra cotta ornament. the highly contrasting red-slip terra cotta fence and gate posts remain largely intact, but when reconfigured during alterations over the decades, segments were no longer needed and were later given to various individuals involved in subsequent restorations.
