NPS Form 10-900-a <br />(8-86) <br />� United States Department of the Interior <br />National Park Service <br />National Register of Historic Places <br />Continuation Sheet <br />OMB Approval No. 1024.0018 <br />Section number 10 Page 1 Dille/Probst House, St. Joseph County, IN <br />Verbal Boundary Description <br />Part of Lots Numbered Ninety-seven (97) and Ninety-eight (98) as shown on the <br />recorded Original Plat of the Town of Lowell, now a part of the City of South Bend, <br />in St. Joseph County, Indiana, which part is described as beginning on the North <br />line of Lot Numbered 97 at a point 30 feet East of the Northwest corner of said lot, <br />running thence East on said North line 50 feet; thence South 132 feet to the South <br />line of said lot Numbered 98; thence West on said South line 50 feet; thence North <br />132 feet to the place of beginning. <br />Boundary Justification <br />The boundary description of the property is the legal description of the lot <br />associated with the Dille/Probst House since its move to the site in 1987. The <br />block was originally platted with lots running parallel to Colfax Avenue. Sometime <br />before 1891, five smaller lots were platted perpendicular to Colfax Avenue. Each <br />of these lots contained a residential structure by 1891, one of which remains west <br />of the Dille/Probst House. The current lot for the Dille/Probst House encompasses <br />all of one of the smaller lots and two-thirds of another with vacant ground between <br />it and the brick commercial building to the east. The current lot is similar in size, <br />configuration and density to the original lot. <br />0 <br />
