1405 Shirley Street

 

This property’s architectural distinction led it to be included as one of six residences featured on the Melrose Heights Company stationery, which promoted the neighborhood’s development during the 1930s. The house’s long roofline creates the sense of a triangle, a feeling reinforced by a louvered attic vent of the same form.
