Description

This house located at 165 Tracy Street was likely built in the 1870s. It is an example of an early frame duplex. The original shiplap siding and the wooden storm windows appear to still be on the exterior in the photo; the building has been re-sided more recently. The house has a long covered porch and gabled roof with a catslide at the back. Of note is the divider between the two front entrances.

In the winter and early spring of 1982-1983, Randall Speller, a colleague of Larry Pfaff from the Art Gallery of Ontario, took a series of black and white photographs of houses of architectural significance in St. Marys. Larry Pfaff and several local friends who shared this interest in architecture took some additional photographs in a subsequent summer. This photograph is one of this series.
