History edit

 
Side elevation of house with porch removed. 1983

The house was built in 1892. Demographic changes in Knoxville's inner city neighborhoods and the construction of the Magnolia Expressway across the street from the house contributed to the neglect and deterioration of the once impressive house. It was finally demolished by the city.
