Vieux Carré Commission Evaluation:

No change: green. This is one in a row of three c. 1836-38 3½-story masonry buildings with attached two-story masonry service wings. The front facades of these Transitional style buildings, which perhaps were constructed by Claude Gurlie, who owned the property between 1836-38, present a symmetrical arrangement of arched openings on the ground floor and square-headed openings with French doors leading onto balconies on the upper floors. Each building contains either exterior passageways (back-to-back to create the appearance of a carriageway) or a carriageway that leads to the rear court and semi-attached service wings.
