Also address integrity) <br />The Taylor-Gustlin House is architecturally significant as a fine example of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival <br />style. One of a pair of very similar homes located next to each other on over -sized parcels, the house is also notable as one <br />of the earlier homes in the Park Santiago neighborhood. According to previous research and neighborhood lore, this house <br />and its neighbor (2510 North Valencia Street) were constructed for two elderly sisters, Laura and Mary Taylor, by their <br />brother, Charles Taylor, and were originally identical. City directories list the Taylors on Edgewood Road, with no house <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />611. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and <br />*1312.
