1001 Oak StreetAlong some of the western-most streets within Lower Waverly stand remarkably intact historic houses. The oldest of these properties include late 19th- and early 20th-century cottages, some of which retain their original pressed-tin roofs, such as this circa-1903 house that features a modest symmetrical façade with ornate porch posts indicative of Victorian design. Initially home to white salespersons, railroad employees, and African American domestic workers, this historic residence is now a rental property.
