The Lake Mansion in Reno, Nevada is a historic house that originally stood at the corner of Virginia and California Streets and is now located adjacent to the Centennial Coliseum on U.S. 395. It was built in 1877 by W.J. Marsh. It includes Late Victorian and Italianate architecture and was a home associated with Myron Lake, one of Reno's founders, who bought it in 1879.
The house was moved to its present location in 1971. The house is 36 by 36 feet (11 m × 11 m) and has a hipped roof with a widow's walk. It was wrapped on three sides by a veranda, which was lost in the move, but which was intended to be replaced.[2] Despite it having been moved, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1]
