Built in 1906, 2544 Scottwood (lot 58) became home to George Lathrop and his wife Caroline.  Lathrop built his own home and others within the block in 1906 at a cost of $3500.  City directories listed the Lathrops here in 1907 and 1908.  The exterior appears to be a reverse image of 2405 Lawrence from which they had just moved.  The 1910-1921 Polk city directories revealed that Charles Brunson, a Central High School teacher, was a resident.  Teacher Louise Brunson roomed here.  The Dec. 7, 1918 issue of the Toledo News-Bee ran a photograph of a Scottwood house that appeared to be 2544.   It was for sale by the Thomas Davies Realty Company.  The house was said to be a modern 8-room residence within the Yaryan Heat District.
