   Built in 1864-66 for James H. Smith, the building replaced a single masonry dwelling. Isaac F. Duckworth, an architect who worked extensively in the neighborhood, gave it a marble front with quoins and a cornice whose central pediment reads "Erected 1864." The ground-floor ironwork came from D.D. Badger's Architectural Iron Works.

   “Designed by Isaac F. Duckworth, who worked extensively in the area, it was built in 1864-66 for James H. Smith.”
