First Hotze House

The First Hotze House is a historic house at 1620 South Main Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. Located in what was once the outskirts of the city, it is an L-shaped single story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof, weatherboard trim, and a foundation of brick piers. A porch extends across most of its front facade, supported by paired square columns with brackets and a dentillated cornice. The building corners are adorned with Italianate pilasters and paired brackets. Built in 1869 and restored in 2000–01, it was the first post-Civil War home of Peter Hotze, a prominent local merchant and real estate developer. (His second, more elaborate home, stands just around the corner.)[2]
