The First House on Goldenrod Avenue Before Park Boulevard had its name, these grounds were home to the Magnolia Race Track, its fence covered in wild Cherokee roses. In August 1910, George Junkin Reiley purchased a lot, and by 1911 his house stood finished. According to its 1979 National Register nomination, it was the first home built in Roseland Terrace. The neighborhood grew around it. Today, the house remains a distinctive presence in Baton Rouge’s Garden District, with architecture and craftsmanship that give it a personality entirely its own.
