Other Wood Frame Houses Currently Covered

            While the previous nine houses are intact wooden houses, there are several other wood frame houses in Fell's Point which are currently covered by other materials or are only partially wooden. Two houses located at 2002 and 2004 Fountain Street are wood frame, but have been covered by formstone and stucco. As previously mentioned, 604 South Wolfe Street is a wooden house much like the ones at 612 and 614 South Wolfe Street, but it is currently covered by vinyl siding. Houses located at 506 and 508 Washington Street (figure 41) have a brick first story, but the second story is wooden. 506 Washington Street is currently covered with stucco, however, the wood siding is visible from the west side of the house.  In the rear of 832 South Bond Street is half of a wooden house visible from Dallas Street.

             310 South Wolfe Street lies the furthest north of all the remaining wooden houses in Fell's Point, but it is unclear whether this house is original or not. It is two and a half stories tall and two bays wide. The house next to it, 308 South Wolfe Street, may have once resembled 310 before it was covered with formstone. Though the house has been modernized to a certain degree, it retains the wood siding and trim. The third story is an addition, the first story window has been converted to a bay window, and the exterior of the first story is covered by an asphalt tiled awning. The house has a chimney, no dormers, and has two small steps up to the doorway, all typical of the other remaining wooden houses in the area. 308 and 310 also set back further than the other houses in the row, suggesting a potential link between the two houses. 310 South Wolfe Street is in fair condition as many of the historic features have been altered and can be distinguished by its tan paint and dark brown trim. The house is currently owned by Gary Mahrenholz, and the Secretary of Housing was the former owner until 1994.

830 - 832 South Bond Street

            Though these houses require further investigation into their age of construction and the remains of their wood frame structure, they are also important to consider in a survey of wooden houses. Several other houses that were once part of a row of wooden houses, such as those on South Ann Street (711, 715, and 721), are wood frame and covered by formstone or other materials. Since many of the houses which are now wooden have been restored after years of being covered by other materials, it is possible that many of these formerly wooden homes can be brought back to their original exterior appearance.
