Carr House, 165 East D Street, Benicia, Solano County, CA

Significance: The Carr House, one of the few masonry buildings in Benicia, was probably constructed in the 1870s. The brick shell is a sober vernacular structure. Much of the trim, including the barge boards, front door and interior woodwork, is more fanciful and is probably due to a somewhat later remodeling. Lying partly under the building is a vaulted brick cistern.
