As a friend of Anonymous above and her ex, I consulted on the '97 renovation and was inside the house before, during, and after the project. Based on my recollections of the interior after demolition, the front part of the house could possibly be ca. 1860's but the rear portions are probably ca. 1880's. It would be nice to get the marker relocated. Ohio City Inc. could be helpful in getting the ball rolling.Doug Wahlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2140721014134558960.post-36648581054810514332012-06-29T22:57:18.508-04:002012-06-29T22:57:18.508-04:00Christopher, any new information?

What do you think the error was that placed the historical marker in front of the wrong house? As far as I can tell, the address of the incorrect house in 1905 (when the streets were renumbered) would have been something in the range 182-186 Bridge St. and today's address is (I think) 2826 Bridge Ave. How did this get confused with 378/3928 Bridge?B.

We had no idea that any part of it was built in the 1850's. My father completely gutted the inside of the house. I'll have to share this with him and see if he had any clue that the house was older than we believed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2140721014134558960.post-2917828364866710952010-02-03T09:13:17.630-05:002010-02-03T09:13:17.630-05:00Oh my I live in that house from 1961-1973 and owne...Oh my I live in that house from 1961-1973 and owned it from 1987-1994.

This seems reasonable enough - there are any number of reasons why a historical marker might not be on the site of the actual event - for greater prominence, for instance, or if the structure in question had been demolished.<br /><br />The problem is that to move it, you'd have to get the organizations who erected it to agreee to move it, and get them to come up with the funds to move it. Right now, I just don't see that happening.Christopher Busta-Peckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428701548572867797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2140721014134558960.post-81265234368249563262009-11-03T10:34:02.775-05:002009-11-03T10:34:02.775-05:00Are they going to move the marker?Are they going to move the marker?Karen Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306986336556283751noreply@blogger.com
