Description
This Tuscaloosa house was built between 1906 and 1907 by Frederick Richard Maxwell Sr. and Lucy Maxwell and remained in the family until 1974 when Mrs. Jennie Maxwell Richardson, daughter of the builder, sold the house to Ted Hellums, who used it as a law office.
This house is important as an outstanding example of the Neo-Revival style which was extremely popular in the early 1900's.
The Maxwell-Richardson House was one of the first homes of the mansion class to be built in over 30 years in Tuscaloosa, signifying the "rebirth" of the social and economic life of the area which was taking place at the turn of the century.
