The William Gabbert House is located on the east side of Davenport, Iowa, United States. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1983.[1] The structure is one of the last remaining Gothic Revival houses left in Davenport. The cross-gabled roof with the steep pitch and the small wall dormer are its distinguishable features. The chamfered corners on the windows and the diamond-shaped windows on the dormer and gable ends contributes to its sense of verticality. The Colonial Revival porch was added sometime in the 1890s and diminishes its impact.[2]
