There is a sign on the porch that reads "Future Home of Smithville Community Coalition." The house is surrounded by green trees and grass, with an overcast sky overhead.

HEARTS is collaborating with the SCC on historic preservation within the community. This property on Ferry Street is one of Smithville’s most intact and important historic properties.
