The plaque says, "Samuel Church Smith, one of the original founders of Carlsbad, built this house in 1887. Sold to Alexander Shipley in 1896, it remained his family home until 1974 when it was bequeathed to the City by his daughter Florence Shipley Magee."

Small building located in downtown Carlsbad that has been converted into a museum in a park. When I visited on December 24, 2020 it was closed for the holidays. During the summer months, the museum is open for tourist and visitors who want to learn about the history of Carlsbad.
