919 Orient St.

September 1980 (Old North Durham Architecture Slides collection, Durham County Library)

Like the house at 913 Orient, this is one of four "one-story bungalows built by the mill around 1924. These rectangular, single-family 'builder's houses' are three rooms deep with a low hipped roof, recessed full-facade porch, and three-bay main facade." (1984 National Historic District application)

The house suffered extensive fire damage in the early 1990s.

After restoration it again reflects much of the original mill village style.
