New Jersey St.] Yes Smith-Kiser House2116-2118 North New Jersey Street1898In 1898, Isaac Norman built this house, first inhabited by owner-occupant Charles H. Smith, a Judge of Credits, and his wife. It appears that the Smith family maintained residence until widow Clara sold the property to Edgar F. Kiser in 1912. At this time, the house was divided into two apartments with Kiser living in the 2118 side for about four years. Moses Cohn continued owner-occupancy of the one section through the 1920s. In 1940, owner Charles Young divided the structure into four apartments, maintaining one as his own residence for a few years.This 2 1/2-story frame building features a large multi-gable roof. A 3-part window pierces the front gable. The house is covered with clapboard siding. The windows and doors have classical frames. The gable has decorative fish scale siding; and, the front porch has classical columns and a roof balustrade.Herron-Morton Place Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1986 multi-family dwelling
