Summary
editDescriptionDr. D. D. Hooper House, Sylva, NC (46683627861).jpg |
This is the Dr. D. D. Hooper House, which is currently home to the offices of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce and architect Odell Thompson. Constructed in 1906, the Queen Anne victorian-style house was built for Dr. D. D. Hooper and his family, and was a Sears and Roebuck kit house designed by Charles M. Wells of the firm Wells and Wilson. The house received the addition of a one-story doctor’s office wing to the lefthand side of the building sometime in the early 20th Century; this space now houses the offices of Odell Thompson, a local Architect. The house was used as a residential property until the late 20th Century, when, prompted by the construction of the old Jackson County Public Library next door in 1970 and the increased commercialization of this formerly residential portion of Main Street, the house became home to the Friends of the Library Used Bookstore, whom operated their charitable bookstore out of the house to support the Library next door. During the 1990s, the Public Library had become woefully inadequate for the needs of the community, and it was proposed to demolish the Hooper House to make way for an expanded library. Thankfully, as it was the last house at this end of Main Street and is an architecturally significant structure, the Hooper House was renovated and adaptively reused as the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce, with it being listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000 and renovations finishing up around 2002. Since that time, the house has served as the chamber of commerce and an architecture office, while the Library, which had long outgrown its quarters in the building next door, moved to a new facility behind the old courthouse atop the hill only a block away in 2011, with the old Library shortly thereafter being renovated in order to serve as the new home of the Sylva Police Department.
