The Patrick F. McCarthy House is located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States. Patrick McCarthy was the president of McCarthy Improvement Co., a local construction company that specializes in building and paving streets.[2] He and his wife Alice had this house built in 1905 and lived here into the 1950s. The Tudor Revival style residence sits high on a hill above Marquette Street. The first story is covered in dark red facebrick and the second and third floors sport the half-timbering for which the architectural style is known. Another feature is the way the upper floors protrude above the floor below. The semi-circular bay provides further interest in this house, which has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1984.[1]
