Last week, we discussed the life of Willis Miner, civic leader and one time president of the Wooden Ware. His house on Park Street was constructed in 1896 and still stands today. The Willis H. Miner House is located on Doty Island at 330 Park Street and sits almost directly across the street from the caboose in the park. Situated on a large lot, the Miner House is a two-and-one-half-story Queen Anne residence featuring a bay window and an extensive front porch. A contributing member of the Smith Park Historic District, the Willis H. Miner House is an outstanding example of the Queen Anne period of construction.
Also, regarding yesterday's entry, the bridge pictured was the Mill Street bridge, NOT the Tayco Street bridge. This blogger regrets the error.
