729-731 Conti Street

Erected: c. 1838-1840
Architect: unknown
Builder: unknown

One of the row of five houses erected after the property was purchased by John Curell in 1838. Its background is the same as that given for the adjacent house at 725-727 Conti St. The building is much more nearly in its original architectural condition, except for the addition of the third floor balcony, the loss of the first and third story shutters and the changing of a first floor window into a doorway.
