a demolition permit for the fred w. morgan residence (1895?) will likely send the turreted three-story brick house - punctuated with bedford arches and columns and ornamented zinc dormers - into a landfill by end of summer.
morgan, who founded morgan and wright, which was involved in the experimentation of rubber and production of bicycle tired (later became the united stated tire company) - died from a heart attack in the house (located at 2678 west washington blvd.) in 1921 at the age of 67.
the architect is not known. the massive ornamental cast and wrought iron exterior fence was executed by the f.p. smith company.
