Vieux Carré Commission Evaluation:

No change: main building -- blue; attached kitchen -- blue; detached stable -- blue; courtyard infill and shed -- brown. A fine example of a c. 1833 Transitional style residence designed perhaps by Gurlie and Guillot for Pierre Soule, the president of the New Orleans Improvement Co. who acquired the property earlier in 1833 from Samuel Hermann & Co. Stucco covers the original red brick façade.
