Another turn-of-the-century house which has suffered the indignity of asbestos shingle siding, the Anderson House was designed and built by Nelson B. Johansen in 1908 for Rasmus Anderson who was a Humboldt County Supervisor from 1910 to 1936. Johansen built an identical house for his wife’s brother in 1906 at the corner of 14th and F Streets. Shree large columns on the front facade, an attached wall “balustrade,” and front door sidelights and pilasters are Colonial Revival elements; the curved and extended eaves with false rafter ends, roof dormer and artistic window divisions suggest a future Craftsman architecture.
