This Queen Anne-style house at 1422 Kanawha Boulevard was built between 1888 and 1889 for Judge Okey Johnson, who served as a justice of the West Virginia Supreme Court from 1876 to 1888. From 1896 to 1922, M.T. Davis, president of the Kanawha Mine Car Company (later Kanawha Manufacturing), lived in the house. Today, the house is occupied by the Children’s Home Society of West Virginia and is part of the East End Historic District.
