Description

On August 1,1939, ground was broken for a new president's home at Florence State Teachers College. It would be located on Seminary Street and Morrison Avenue, facing Seminary Street. The home would be a 2-story brick corresponding in architecture with other buildings on the State Teachers College campus. There would also be a two-car garage connected to the back of the house. The Works Projects Administration completed the home in 1941, where Dr. and Mrs. James A. Keller became the first occupants. The landscape of the home was designed by the Olmsted Brothers of Boston, Massachusetts.
