The Allen-Woodward House at 406 S. 3rd Street was built by contractor Jacob Allen in 1886. The home features a sturdy design prompted by the earthquake in Charleston earlier that year. The facade was eventually altered by subsequent owner Mary Worth Woodward.
This is part of a multi-day series highlighting each of the 10 buildings on the 2015 Azalea Festival Home Tour, which takes place April 11 and 12. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.historicwilmington.org.
