"Doors on Broadway Series #2"
1808 Broadway
Currently known as the Murfee House, 1808 Broadway was built in 1929 by Dr. and Mrs. M. C. Overton at a cost of $30,000. Overton's friend Blum Haynes was the architect. A focal point of the Colonial Revival style house is a two-story, front-gabled entry. The main door surround, constructed of stone, features a transom light, pilaster-framed sidelights and a triangular pediment.
