This house was built by Rudolf Haffenreffer, the owner of the brewery we just walked through about 1890. He wanted to be right on top of what was going on at his company. Steam pipes connected the house to the brewery – so he only paid one heating bill! This is a rather modest house for a brewery owner. Later, he moved up to a very large mansion on Moss Hill. And after that was destroyed by a fire he ended up back in this neighborhood in a modest house on Atherton Street as a retiree.
