Ugh! Yet another beautiful home sliced down the middle and turned into a duplex. Clearly the two home owners are either blind, or in a architectural feud as the two sides are as radically different as they could be even if you decided to do it on purpose. So much for architectural integrity.

Located at 9-11 East Second Street in downtown Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district.

The Department of the Interior sent me the following narrative/information on this house:
"c.1851. 2-story, 4-register clapboarded house with side entries recessed beneath a wraparound Victorian porch on turned posts with carved brackets. 1/1 double hung sash, wood lintels and sills. Asphalt roof. 2-story rear addition. - Contributing.
