Owner-builder William S. Kale constructed a unique and lavishly appointed home here in 1907, which included many customized features. The house blends several architectural styles: Victorian, Craftsman and Prairie. Additionally, Mr. Kale constructed an "auto barn" in 1907, indicating that he was an early car owner. Mr. Kale lived on the property until 1914 and was succeeded by R. M. Moore, who worked in real estate. In 1925, the house was occupied by Sam L. Moore, also in real estate. In 1931, Rolla Alford, a music teacher, moved in along with E. T. Bell, and it was Mr. Bell who constructed the Music Art Hall next door at 440 East Ninth Street.
