1867
Brewer Walter J. Price makes his home at 61 Charles Street
Walter W. Price, a brewer, owned this house and its two neighbors, built in 1866 on the old Van Nest estate, and they were first assessed to him in 1867. The occupant of No. 61 was a business associate, Walter J. Price, also a brewer. The house is nearly a twin of No. 59, though some of its doorway detail has been lost under smooth stucco.
“Nos. 61-57 were originally assessed in 1867 to Walter W. Price, brewer, but it was his associate Walter J. Price, likewise a brewer, who made his home at No. 61.”
