Two-story frame Foursquare sheathed with German siding; pyramidal roof. Originally very similar to 1020 Gloria. Unsympathetically altered in 1971 with small French doors replacing the second-story windows, full-facade porch replaced by copper clad canopy sheltering the main entrance. First floor hidden from sight by forbidding brick wall with security gate. Constructed c. 1910 by the Edwards family who were in the grocery business. The house originally had a coal grate fireplace in every room; five of these remain. Interior follows center hall plan; twin parlors with pocket doors flank the hallway.

1022 Gloria Ave. Built c. 1910 by the Edwards family who were in the grocery business, this house originally had a coal grate fireplace in every room; five remain. The open center hall flanked by parlors is typical of the period; note the sliding pocket doors. The kitchen has been remodeled for serious cooks, with the addition of a restaurant capacity fan on the roof. In 1971 a one-story porch was removed and the front facade was remodeled as a townhouse surrounded by a walled garden court. Home of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth M. Scott.
