| Title | College Street #130 |
| Description | This house was built circa 1841 for one of the first students at Western Reserve College and later a tutor, Philo Wright (1812-1844). The builders were most likely Porter and Rice, who were the college architects at the time. This structure originally sat at the corner of College and Chapel streets and was relocated here in the late-19th or early-20th century. Dr. Angus Frew (1874-1941), who was born in Glasgow, Scotland, and taught at Western Reserve Academy, also occupied this residence. More research is needed. |
