- The craftsman house at the corner of 14th Street and Wilson in Fairhaven
- Date
- 1930-1940
- Description
- A 1940s automobile parked in front. Galen Biery was born (1910) in and lived in this house before moving to 13th Street in the 1940's. This predates Fairhaven (formerly Valley) Parkway so there are several houses shown that are no longer extant. The brick building across Wilson from the craftsman house still exists as does the house beyond it on Wilson. The immediate foreground is a field which today is park of Creekside Condos.
