I’m writing my recap of the Loring Park neighborhood led by Ren (wr3n) and Julie and discovered interesting information about one of the properties Ren showed me:
The Ladd House: 131 Oak Grove Street
Currently under review to receive historic preservation status, “131 Oak Grove Street is one of a few remaining opulent, late 1800s residences in Loring Park.The Ladd House was constructed by W.D. Lewis for Henry E. Ladd in 1889 for an estimated $18,000. Harry Wild Jones designed the building in the Richardsonian Romanesque style.”
