The Poe Society states: This engraving, made in the 1940s from an old photograph, shows the Baltimore Poe House as it probably appeared around 1833. The top of the left half was raised some years later to provide a full room on the third floor with a flat roof. The left half of the building was removed in 1938. Poe lived with Maria Clemm and her family in the right side of the house.
