| Description: |
| Story 1: | James M. Alexander Jr., architect of 405-2 house, was a professor of architecture at the University of Cincinnati and later Dean (see his notes and pictures in the file of the old house before demolition and of the foundations). |
| "I don't know how long the Abbott Johnsons lived in the house. Approximately 12-15 years later I was invited to a party there. At that time it was owned and occupied by the daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Reed F. Stockdale of Clifton. I don't remember the daughter's married name or that of her husband." (James Alexander) |
