Dr Elijah McLean Home
(1834-1839)
"Edgewater"
This large southern colonial-style brick is located at 600 West Front Street. Two and
one-half stories, it has an addition in the rear. It also has a one-story front
porch. It
has a central hall, open stairway with unusual offset hinges duplicated in restoration of
outside shutters. The tile found under the concrete porch was duplicated (imported from
England) to restore the porch floor. Dr. McLean was one of the earliest physicians in
Washington and served, 1830-1832, as a state representative.
