Built around 1875, the Italianate house at 3341-43 Whitney Avenue in Hamden was built for Joseph H.K. Miller. He was employed by the Mount Carmel axle works factory of Frederick Ives, part of the New Haven area’s carriage building industry. By 1880, Joseph’s brother, Willis E. Miller, became a partner in the company, which was thereafter known as Ives and Miller. The factory was in operation until 1907.

    Hi I’m a student from Quinnipiac University. We are interested in looking at your house as a possible location for a film that we’re producing this semester. Please let me know if this is possible and if it is can you please contact me with information about the house.
    Thank you so much.
