The streets marked Ohio and Metcalf are now both named Bixel, with a jog at Court Street. Between Colton and 1st, Bixel has been eliminated because of the park.

Edgeware between Colton and Second was once Kern St. According to insurance maps, the renaming took place after 1921, and there was no house on the southeast corner of Colton and Kern/Edgeware before then either. The house now at 172 N Edgeware must have been moved to this lot, perhaps from somewhere in the neighborhood--its architecture is characteristic of the mid 1900s.
