Description
82 W Green was previously located on this lot.

There is no street number conversion on the 1899 Crandall map but the numbering of the buildings before and after indicate that the duplex at 82 and 82 1/2 would be 516 and 518 W Green St.  Neither building is on the 1904 or 1910 Sanborn maps.  A new building located here on the 1919-1920 Sanborn map is numbered 516 W Green St.
