The Tate House



The same family that purchased the Leavell House (see earlier posts) has also purchased the green bungalow that is next to it at 807 College St. A woman named Mrs. Tate lived there for many years. The first order of business is clearing the yard, which had gotten quite overgrown. The new owners offered some of the plants in the yard to neighbors who wanted them, as well as some old bricks. Will Moore took the bricks to build a new walkway in front of the Logan-Parker house he is renovating on 7th Street (see earlier post about Sears Kit homes). We'll have to get a picture of that when it is done!
