This structure was the main frame for a dairy farm.  Captain Leale, a ferry boat captain, bought the house in 1883 and remodeled the facade with the popular Italianate-false front style.  The 1920's building behind it is the "pencil" building known as "Susie's Building," where national political circles have entertained the elite of the Democratic party.
