OHD Notes
From the walking brochure: "11 Driver House
9335 Congress Street
c. 1917-22. This was the former site of the
Smith Creek Baptist Church (1833-1918).
The present home was completed in 1919
by Dr. and Mrs. W.F. Driver and was under
construction for four years due to a short-
age of building materials that resulted from
WWI. This may account for the eclectic
blend of architectural details: a porch pedi-
ment, double pilasters, hipped roof and bay
gable. Bricks and beams from the church
were also used in the construction of the
house. Dr. Driver had his office in the home
until his death in 1922, after which Mrs.
Driver rented out rooms."
