28 Shepard Avenue

Address: 94 Shepard Avenue

Old Address: 28 Shepard Avenue

Other names: Richardson Cottage (1911), Green Cottage (1928), Greene Cottage (flat) (1930); DIS. An early, but undated, map (probably circa 1911 or later) shows number 28 Shepard Avenue noted as "W. J. Richardson." This was likely the home of the boy known as "Ling" Richardson who was a friend of Henry Ives Baldwin in the early years of the last century.

Year built: 1908 or earlier (Sanborn maps)

Other information: According to the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, 4/5/2010, the U.S. Attorney's Office is trying to seize this Shepard Avenue house in connection with federal fraud charges filed against its most recent owner. (This charge may actually apply to 24/26 Shepard Avenue, as the street numbers may have been "adjusted" more than once.)
