239 North Mulberry Street Lancaster, PA
This Lancaster City log house was built ca. 1815 by Peter Wenaur. A frame second story was added ca. 1860. The logs had been covered with siding and Formstone. The house was renovated in 1980 by Meredith Schuibbeo, who was surprised to find the logs under the siding.
Only a few log houses survive in the city. Another exposed-log house is at 515 Howard Ave. Houses with the logs covered by siding include: 51 Old Dorwart St., 113 Howard Ave., 143 Howard Ave., and 429 Church St.
Two Lancaster City log houses have been rescued from demolition and moved to museums: Landis Valley Museum, and Conestoga Historical Society. Are there other log houses here in the city, hiding under siding? This house location: 239 North Mulberry Street Lancaster, PA.
