305 E BROAD ST 

This house was built for the Wallace family by Byrd Hoover in 1905 and sold two years later to Mary Jane Lamb. The lot was originally the garden plot of the Pyles-Hubbard House at 309 E. Broad Street. A widow's walk was removed from the peak of the house around 1923, and in 1940 major alterations were undertaken, including the removal of the east porch, the addition of a new room in its place, and the reconstruction of the front porch with a concrete slab and wrought iron posts. Despite these alterations the house contributes to the potential historic district along E. Broad and E. Elm Streets.
