Research Narrative

Landmark Context

Fisher Studio Houses is anchored to 1209 N State Pkwy before any deeper archive work begins. The current city data lists it as dating to a construction date of 1936 and credits Andrew Rebori & Edgar Miller. It was designated on July 31, 1996. Fisher Studio Houses already has a usable public frame for work on domestic design, residential development, and block-by-block neighborhood change.

Fisher Studio Houses gains definition in the field when attention concentrates on lot width, setbacks, porches, bays, and rooflines, the rhythm between neighboring houses, and alterations that show changing domestic use. Together, those clues make it easier to understand how one domestic building can still clarify the growth of an entire residential block.

Research Starting Points

Fisher Studio Houses can be checked against real-estate atlases and fire insurance maps, permit files and census or directory material, and historic photographs and neighborhood histories when the designation summary runs out. Those records make it easier to test what changed, what remained, and how the building fit into a larger local story.

Fisher Studio Houses still needs permits, photographs, and comparison, but the landmark record gives that work a stable point of return.
