DescriptionThis house at 6935 Cornell Avenue (originally #22 Cornell Avenue) is one of the earliest houses built in University Heights #1. Architect Herbert C. Chivers was an associate of Edward Gardner Lewis, and architect for the Woman's Magazine Building. Chivers also designed houses, and this house matches his "Burgin Residence" design on page 935 in "Artistic Homes," his catalogue of house plans published in 1910. One of its early residents was John W. Lewis, Edward Gardner Lewis' brother, who lived here until his house at #1 Yale was built. John Lewis was University City's City Attorney.
