History:
27 East 11th Street was built in Greek Revival style, with a handsome stoop, elegant cornices and distinctive wrought ironwork at both the stoop and front areaway enclosure. The original, characteristic wrought ironwork has been fully restored and still stands today. No. 27 was part of an original row of 4 townhomes from No. 23 - 29 built together in the 1840s for different owners.
The front facade has been magnificently restored to reflect the home's original charming features including the wrought iron railing, balcony, historic gas lamp and re-appointed brick. Delightful shutters along the windows have been added as well.
Samuel Holmes, a dry goods merchant, made his home at No. 27, which had been built for him in 1845. In the years that followed, 27 East 11th Street became home to Willard Travell, a notable doctor of the late 1800s - early 1900s, and his family. It is the birthplace of Willard's daughter, Janet Travell, who was elected as the first female White House physician.
