Francis R. Otstot purchased this property by July 1890 from Edward Chapin and built the Gabled-T house within two years. Lawrence Hardy, a manufacturer of ledgers and stationary, was listed as the primary resident in the 1892 city directory. He lived here with his wife, Jennie, and their four children, Millie, Pauline, Wade and Helen, along with a twenty-year-old Swedish boarder, Ellen Haquist.
