(Outline approximate.)
This was the site of "Clematis Cottage", a.k.a. the Grace Greenwood house, a historic house built in 1873 by the author Sara Jane Lippincott, a.k.a. Grace Greenwood. She spent her summers here until 1877.
The house was destroyed in a flood in 1894. (Note that Fountain Creek originally passed just to the north of it, but later shifted course, and now flows directly through its former site.)
