Floyd B. Brown House

Location
  
1401 S. Georgia St., Pine Bluff, Arkansas

The Floyd B. Brown House is a historic house at 1401 South Georgia Street in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. It is a single-story vernacular brick structure, with a gable roof and brick foundation. Decorative elements on the building are minimal, with scalloped trim elements at the gables and eaves, and a fanlight in the front-facing gable. The house was built in 1954 for Floyd and Lillian Brown. The Browns were prominent African-American educators: Floyd Brown founded the Fargo Training School in Fargo, Arkansas, and his wife Lillian taught there.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.
