Visit vestiges of one of Reno's earliest residential neighborhoods dating from the mid-1870s. Hear the stories of its early "movers and shakers," such as Fire Chief George Twaddle, businessman Frank Humphrey, and banker Charles Bender and view the varying architectural styles from the Carpenter Gothic Clifford House to the modest brick bungalows of the Smith-Petersen subdivision.
