213 E. Spring 

        This two story brick home was built in the 1860's by Florenz  Pieper, a stone mason.  It remained in the Pieper family until the 1960's.  The vernacular style with Missouri German affinities includes an added one-story front porch on the south.  There are end chimneys on the east and west.  Additions extending to the north include a gabled two-story brick ell and a clapboarded pent addition which sits on a concrete foundation to the west bay.  This area has enclosed porches.  To the north are new frame garages.  There is a wine cellar in the basement.  The residence faces south onto East Spring and sits on an  embankment with a beautiful cut and laid stone reinforcing wall to the south and east. To the north is an alley and a gravel parking area.  The residence is a duplex at this time.
