702 E. First Street [EFHD], House, c.1906. This is a good example of a shotgun house, a common working-class style built in the south primarily from the 1880s through the 1930s, although examples from the 1940s and ’50s are found. This house has decorative shingles in the gable end and a recessed porch with a frieze and columns that give it an unusual classical air. The first identified tenant of this rental property was Stephen A. Rossman, a bartender at the Westbrook Hotel, who lived here from about 1910 to 1913. The house is a contributor to the potential East First Street Historic District.
