Arkansas Ties ... A Little Bit of This, a Little Bit of That, and a Whole Lot of Arkansas

Kadel Cottage 417 East 10th Street Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas c. 1860 A.R. Mabry - This name marker was found in front of the Kadel Cottage. Kadel Cottage c. 1860 The Kadel Cottage is one of Little Rock's few surviving examples of a middle-class home built before the Civil War. George Kadel, builder of the cottage, came to the United States from Germany. In the early 1840's, he settled in Little Rock, where he earned his living as a Butcher. Build in 1859 or 1860, the Kadel Cottage, originally consisted of just four rooms and a hall. Although its symmetrical design is reminiscent of the antebellum Greek revival style, the decorative brackets under the eaves of its roof signal the approach of Victorian architectural styles.
