Description

Two black and white photos of a single family dwelling located at 533 Water Lot No. 222. In the first photo the house is single story box style home. There is a central screened double French door that is blocked by a patio chair and four windows, two on either side of the door. There are two visible rectangle shaped windows on the right side of the home. The roof is metal and pyramid shaped with a flat top and a square ornamental iron decoration on the top. The dirt driveway on the right side of the home leads to the back and a slightly visible garage style structure. A metal chain fence surrounds the yard along with some shrubs and a large palm tree. There is a large tree visible in the upper right corner behind the home and a large electrical pole and sidewalk in front of the home.

The second picture is of the left side or back of the home. A small chicken coop style room with a flat shingled roof and two windows, one on the left and one in the front, is attached to the home. Part of a porch and wood railing is visible on the right hand side. The roof is visible at the top of the photo and a random scattering of weeds is visible in the bottom of the photo. An electrical wire drapes across the upper left.
