This is another foursquare variant, of which numerous examples were built in St. Louis in the first two decades of the 20th century. Gable Front Foursquares generally borrowed their decorative detail from the Arts and Crafts style: their characteristic front gable was covered with false half-timbering or heavy fascia boards with pronounced brackets.
