Mary Cecil Canrtill No. 5 House, 216 Oregon Street, Georgetown, Scott County, KY
Summary
Significance: The Cantrill #5 house represents a type of residence built for late 19th-early 20th century African-American working-class tenants. It is significant for its role as a residential subtype (double shed-roofed shotgun plan) typical of African-American housing after the Civil War. Intended for two households, it represents a solution to the housing needs of a growing African-American urban population during the turn of the 20th century in Georgetown, Kentucky.
