Roy Hotchkiss
R. D. Pugh
Bungalow, Craftsman
Roy Hotchkiss was an apprentice in E. E. Roberts' studio before opening his own office. He also designed the Medical Arts Building at 715 Lake Street. Oral history with long-time resident Peg Zak indicates that the brick left over from the original construction of this home may have been used to build the bungalow at 711 S. East, which was constructed in 1923 by R. D. Pugh for owner John Jones.
