Name of Building
Addolph Dill House
Original Description (transcribed from book)
The Addolph Dill House is one of the most important dwellings built in the City during the decade of 1830-1840. The exterior of the house is very well-preserved, as is the interior staircase. The house was used as a club by Maggie Walker in the early twentieth century.
Original Note (transcribed from book)
The 00 Block of East Clay Street forms a buffer against commercial intrusion into the residential portions of Jackson Ward. It contains a number of fine houses with very fine cast iron porches, but its lack of street trees damage the desired residential character.
