The Perplexing Toothache: East Hartford's Missing House

The Perplexing Toothache: East Hartford's Missing House

On a peaceful suburban road in East Hartford, CT, hides a historic district dating back to the 18th century. Yet, one home, demolished in the 19th, continues to give historians an unshakable headache.

The Naubuc Avenue-Broad Street Historic District in East Hartford, Connecticut, is a quaint agricultural village from the 18th and early 20th centuries. Its exquisite architecture, a time capsule of its era, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. However, one house within the district, constructed in the 19th century, remains a classic 'Where's Waldo?' for investigators. Despite their tireless efforts, the reason for its disappearance still leaves everyone scratching their heads.
