A larger lot accommodated an earlier house which was demolished prior to 1904 when this residence and the one to its right were built. The first tenant was W. D. Griffith, a fire insurance agent. Gabriel Ludlow, superintendent of the Virginia Carolina Chemical Company also lived here. Notice the paired columns, bay window and fine latticework detailing in the pediment.
