It was built for Genevieve Harrison in 1942 or earlier and several additions were added later to reach its current size of 1,716 square feet (159.4 m2). Harrison operated it as a boarding house from 1942 to her death in 1957, then it was operated by her sister until 1960. It is notable for having served African-American entertainers in Las Vegas, as well as other African-Americans.[2]
