Daniel Miller House - A West-side Treasure

In 1802, Pennsylvanian Daniel Mille visited west dayton seeking land upon which to establich a new home. The resulting brick mansion built on the bluff overlooking the valley still stands today in a humble west side neighborhood, dwarfing the structures around it. This proud building is in trouble, the victim of an unintended conspiracy of age, neglect and disinvestment. One of the oldest homes in the city, designated a part of the underground railroad, architecturally significant Federal-style, and on the National register of Historic Places - this house is one caring buyer away from preservation.

PDI is exploring a number of private-public sector initiatives to save the house, all the while hoping tht preservationist of good heart will step forward. Take a few minutes to drive by the house at 3525 Dandridge Avenue - once there you will understand it's significance.
