SP-7
AVONDALE APARTMENTS 
211 EAST SECOND STREET 
DATE: 1916 
ARCHITECT: Roy Benjamin 
BUILDER: H. F. McAden

The two-story Avondale was built as an annex to the larger Lauderdale Apartments (SP-6) next door.  Although built four years after the original building, the Avondale was constructed of similar materials and texture as the Lauderdale, making them distinctive yet complementary neighbors.  The enclosure of the open spaces on the front of the building grossly detracts from the original design.
