Notes

This building was published and incorrectly identified as being in Swampscott in Engineering & Building Monthly, July 18, 1891. Estimated cost of $40,000. This was built on the former Peters Estate. Newspapers note that Kendall moved the Old Peters House to make space - Peters house was likely the house at 31 Deep Run, which was razed circa 2020; Other outbuilding survive on Deep Run including the Jully House (21 Deep Run), Stable (18 Deep Run), Barn (25 Deep Run). Also appears to be the building illustrated as "An Interior at Cohasset, Massachusetts" in the April 24, 1892 issue of Engineering Record
