Subject
Rozier's addition and residence
Description
On April 2, 1853, Rozier signed a construction contract with John Troll, Joseph Jokurst and Charles Jokurst for $1,025 to build this two story brick addition adjacent to the Old Academy.
The addition stands fifty feet wide by twenty-five feet high. Initially created as a classroom wing, Rozier converted the lower level into a dining room, sitting room and bathroom adding a large central chimney (as it remains in the photo today). The second floor rear wing was similarly altered to serve as a bedroom and large, private library for the General.
