City Directories and History: Contractor, C.C. “Cam” Davis constructed this lovely home for Thomas Q. Boozer in 1885. In 1979, when the survey team photographed the house it was in poor condition and they suggested it might not be saved. In 2013, the home remains in poor condition but never-the-less, does remain as a testament to the builder.

The homeowner, Art Will wrote on 10.8.14 – “This house was built in 1884-1885 – time frame the upstairs master bedroom window is etched with an engraving copy of the award medal from the 1884-1885 via the New Orleans World Fair. I own and live in it. I am restoring it so any info or pictures would be appreciated. Currently the house is solar powered.”
