Description: 623 E. Vermont Street, Thomas Vance Cottage, c. 1978, Lockerbie Square, Indianapolis
Yes
Thomas Vance Cottage <br>623 East Vermont Street <br>1861 <br>This cottage was built for Thomas Vance and his family in 1861. The original structure consisted of only the front gable, making it a four room dwelling. The rear section of the home was added around the turn of the century. Vance, a cabinet maker, was a man of modest means, which explains the absence of ornate trim found on other area houses of this type. <br>This simple one-and-a-half story frame cottage is three bays wide and has a gable roof with an interesting gable at the rear, forming a T plan. A transom is above the front door. <br>Lockerbie Square Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1987
