This is a contemporary, split-entrance house, the second Westby home on this property. (See 2915 East 24th Street, razed fall 1974.) According to the abstract, in May 1912 the land was purchased by Ole and Anne Westby as joint tenants from Andrew A. Borgen. The first owner was Ebenezer Wardwell (the first Minneapolis city surveyor) who purchased the land from the US government in 1860. The land continues to be owned by the Westby family.
