It should be noted that this structure has been a nuisance for a while, attracting squatters and curiosity seekers. While rundown and neglected, it is a pre-Civil War house that sits next to Hollywood Cemetery. The neighborhood is against demolition since the house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing structure to the Oregon Hill Historic District. I won’t get into its history of ownership here, but lets just say it has been interesting.
