A Middle Class Neighborhood

Stewart Avenue ran through a beautiful little grove, with houses so encircled by trees as to be invisible until one was close beside them. Middle class families of Fayette's foremen, skilled tradesmen, and office workers lived in these company-built homes. Many were built in the New England salt box style, while others were side-by-side duplexes. Today, nine houses and the stone foundations of thirteen others survive in the townsite.
