J.S. Kingmen house

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I have removed the J.S. Kingmen house because I cannot verify the entry. The section read:

The J.S. Kingmen House, at 2022 Second Avenue South, is a 2.7 story Shingle Style house built in 1883. It was the residence of James Thayer Gerould during his tenure as librarian at the University of Minnesota.

Gerould is attested, the address is within the district, and the date is plausible for Shingle style, but "2.7 story" piqued my interest, and I cannot find anything substantiating this house. The text was added on 13 April 2010 by an editor whose only other edit (unless some have been deleted) was changing it from "K.S." to "J.S." Here it is for restoration (with the number of floors corrected) if it is in an offline source or one Google isn't showing me. Yngvadottir (talk) 15:20, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
