David Smith was a house builder who constructed a row of Greek Revival houses at 237, 259-261, and 283 Brewster Street in the Black Rock Section of Bridgeport. The house at No. 259-61, now a multi-family home, was Smith’s own residence, built in 1843. At 3 Calderwood Court is the David Smith Barn, built the same year and converted into a residence in the 1850s.
