E. Rollins Morse Service House/Stable
347 Newbury Street
Boston, Mass.
Year Built: 1881
Year Demolished: ca.1900
This is a combination dwelling house and stable for E. Rollins Morse. It was demolished in about 1920 and sat near the corner of Newbury and Mass. Ave. on the north side of Newbury Street.
Interestingly, Sturgis & Brigham designed a house for E. Rollins Morse on Commonwealth Avenue in 1880. It is likely that the dwelling house and stable is a service building for the Morse family or their business interests.
