THIS IS A VERY UNUSUAL HOUSE AND I CANNOT BE CERTAIN WHICH IS THE FRONT AND WHICH IS THE BACK - NOR CAN I TELL WHICH IS THE RESIDENTIAL AREA AND WHICH WAS DR. FISHER'S OFFICE. CONSEQUENTLY I SHALL SUBMIT TWO PICTURES AND YOU CAN CHOOSE WHICH ONE TO USE FOR THE NR LISTING AND THE OTHER MIGHT BE OF USE IN WIKIPEDIA'S ARTICLE ON THE HOUSE
