D21. Hohmann House (1853)

273 East Mill Street

Originally built in 1853 by Heinrich Hohmann of plastered stone and brick. The city’s first Western Union telegraph office was housed here by 1865. Subsequent owner Wilhelm Fischer, a tailor and herb specialist, probably added the wood siding, porch, and gingerbread woodwork in the 1880s. Now an office building.
