Adam
Fischer Home
This is a photo of a house located on the north side of East Federal
Street between West Street and Vienna Avenue. The house was built
by Adam Fischer for his family in the late 1800s, the
girl on the porch was born in 1893.
Adam Fischer then built and lived in another house on Summit
Street. Then he built two more houses, next to it on the north
side. The one closest to Robbins Avenue was built for Aunt
Anna Wolf. The middle house was originally for himself,
but Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Lippy (Parents of Dr. Lippy
and owners of Lippys Clothing Store) wanted to buy it, so he
sold them the house and built the third house for himself.
He built other houses in Niles and the Niles
City Building at 34 West State Street, Ardens
Furniture Store on Main Street and Niles
Bert Street School (On now Belmont Avenue, later called
Monroe School). Information from Arlene Fischer
