It was home to lower to middle income black workers in Columbus. By 1896 it was home to George W. Walls, a dyer for Eagle and Phenix Mills. By 1898 it was home for Mack Culver and his wife; Culver was a fireman for the Central of Georgia Railroad. By 1900 it was home of William Hines, another worker at Eagle and Phenix, and his wife Clara.[2]
Its front porch includes some gingerbreading attached to its chamfered columns as a nod by the builder to popular styles.[2]
Its National Register listing was within a batch of numerous Columbus properties determined to be eligible consistent with a 1980 study of historic resources in Columbus.[3]
