Description and history

It is a 2-1/2 story, Prairie School-style house, designed by architecture firm Ware & Treganza. Construction commenced in 1909.[2] According to the NRHP nomination, it is significant as a "fine example" of Prairie School style in Utah. It is probably one of the earliest examples of Prairie School style in the work of Ware & Treganza.[2]
