Survey Number: HPS-104
Name: Manley Rental Cottage
Location: 114 E. 7th Street
Year Built: 1920
Architectural Style: Bungalow


The Manley Rental Cottage was built in 1920 by Mrs. Elizabeth Manley, a widow, as infill in an established neighborhood. Mrs. Manley rented the bungalow until 1933, when she sold it to Helen C. Roberts, superintendent of the State Teachers College Training School.

This building represents a good example of the Bungalow style with its bracketed eaves, massive porch posts, and double hung-windows. Although transformed into a restaurant with a modern pergola and outdoor dining area in the front yard, the adaptive use elements were designed and constructed to complement the existing building in scale and detail.
