Abstract
The M. O. Davidson House was designed in 1925. It is located at 2216 Evelyn Avenue in the Central Gardens area of Memphis. The home is in the Moorish architectural style. It is made out of brick. The house is a bungalow, but is unique because of the Moorish style. It has a porch surrounded by horseshoe arches. Like a traditional bungalow, it has a shingle roof. The roof has a narrow eyebrow ventilator. It is a slightly narrow home, but you would not notice because the many arches make it seem wider than it is. To learn more see Memphis: An Architectural Guide by Eugene J. Johnson.
