Description:
Frank Herschede Home, 3886 Reading Rd., is a squarish 3-story structure of Indiana limestone designed by Samuel Godley in Italian Renaissance style and erected by James Griffith & Sons Company in 1908. It resembles an Italian villa, with overhanging roof of red tiles and grilled windows and entranceway. The name of its owner is almost synonymous with the manufacture of hall clocks. The interior is notable for its intricately carved mahogany and leather, done by workers of the clock factory under the supervision of the Herschede family. description Frank Herschede Home, 3886 Reading Rd., is a squarish 3-story structure of Indiana limestone designed by Samuel Godley in Italian Renaissance style and erected by James Griffith & Sons Company in 1908.
