William Hubbard Atkins House (1840)

The Greek Revival-style double house at 93-97 Broad Street in Middletown was built c. 1840-1841 by William Hubbard Atkins, who owned the Hubbard Hardware Company. In 1853, Elijah Loveland, owner of a livery stable, bought the south half of the house. It remained in the Loveland family while the north half had a number of owners until 1904, when Dr. John E. Loveland acquired ownership of both halves. Dr. Loveland had his medical practice in the building. In 1960, the American Red Cross acquired the building from Dr. Loveland’s widow and occupied it for many years.
