1028 Buchanan Avenue Lancaster, PA

This almost-suburban home was built ca. 1930 for pharmacist / drug-store owner Clyde H. Cooper and wife May (Dorwart) Cooper. Mr. Cooper also served as Lancaster city treasurer.
The home is located in the leafy western edge of the city. The township boundary line is in this same block, marking an official beginning of Lancaster Township suburbs.
The house is in the Tudor Revival style. The half-timbering has brick infill with a basket-weave bond. Architectural revival styles were popular in this neighborhood in the early 20th century, including the requisite Colonial Revival style.
