The Hall House

3244 Fairbanks Ave. (formerly 6121 W. Central)

The house at 3244 Fairbanks (southeast corner of Fairbanks and Goodhue) used to sit on the south side of Central Avenue in the mid-70s, between Fairbanks and Piero, before the “Central Avenue Strip.” The Harold Hall family lived in the house at 6121 W. Central and owned a couple of businesses on the adjacent property until c1976.

The Hall house, along with a second home (Roy Maple house), was moved from the property on the south side of Central and driven down Fairbanks and placed on prebuilt foundations. The Roy Maple house is now at 3243 Marsrow (southwest corner of Marsrow and Goodhue).

3244 Fairbanks in 1998. Image taken from Goodhue. There used to be a fairly deep and wide ditch that ran from Fairbanks to Marsrow. Can almost tell where it was in this image by the slight dip in the yard with the sand and brown grass.
The other house that was moved. 3243 Marsrow (with 3244 Fairbanks visible to the right in the image).
