Dawley House

The Dawley House is an historic property located in Le Claire, Iowa, United States, and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979. It is the former home of Daniel V. Dawley. The property is part of the Houses of Mississippi River Men Thematic Resource, which covers the homes of men from Le Claire who worked on the Mississippi River as riverboat captains, pilots, builders and owners. Daniel V. Dawley Born in Vermont in 1811, Daniel V. Dawley worked in Troy, New York and New York City before moving to Iowa in 1834. He started his first river job as a clerk on the steamer Hero two years later. Dawley spent the next 38 years working on the river as either a clerk or captain, often for the Minnesota Packet Company. He worked on boats such as the Galena, the Henry Clay, and he was a part owner of the Golden Era. In 1881 Dawley was appointed the Le Claire postmaster. He died in 1893. His single-family house was converted into the Crane & Pelican Cafe. Architecture The Dawley House is a two-story brick structure built on a stone foundation. It is a variation on the vernacular Italianate style. The bricks used in the construction were manufactured locally. The main facade of the house is three bays wide and four along the side elevations. The bays are separated by Flat brick pilasters that have narrow caps just below the cornice level. The house is capped by a shallow hipped roof with narrow eaves with paired brackets. The main entrance is located off-center to the left. The porch, which extends across the front of the facade, and is probably of a later construction. It is influenced by the Gothic Revival style and features thick chamfered posts. The windows are six over six sashes with flat lintels and sills. Built onto the rear of the house is a single-story kitchen wing. Like the main house block, it is capped with a bracketed hip roof and a wooden cornice. The small porch on the south side of the kitchen wing is supported by attenuated columns. The lot on which the house is built slopes steeply to the east. It features a stone retaining wall extends across its south side. References
Democrat Building

Democrat Building is a historic building located in downtown Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 2020 it was included as a contributing property in the Davenport Downtown Commercial Historic District. The historic newspaper building is now an apartment building known as The Democrat Lofts. History The Democrat Building was designed by a prominent Davenport architecture firm of Clausen & Kruse, and it was built in 1923. The firm also designed other historic buildings in Davenport including the Forrest Block, which is next door to the south, the Hibernia Hall, which is next door to the north, the Scott County Savings Bank, Davenport Municipal Stadium (now Modern Woodmen Park), The Linograph Company Building, and the W.D. Petersen Memorial Music Pavilion in LeClaire Park. The building was built for a local newspaper the Davenport Democrat, which was started in 1848 as the Democratic Banner. Its editorial philosophy was in keeping with that of the political party of the same name. Over the years the paper purchased the Gazette (1887) and the Evening Leader (1902). The paper was eventually bought by Lee Enterprises, which published the Daily Times. The merged newspapers became the Times-Democrat and is now known as the Quad-City Times. The building was sold to The Catholic Messenger, the newspaper for the Diocese of Davenport, in 1956. The building served as their headquarters for a couple of decades. The building also housed a dog training school, a vacuum cleaner salesroom, a dance hall and a specialty store. In 2014, a $6 million renovation turned the building into 21 apartments. The building is considered significant because of its association with newspapers in Davenport, and as an example of the local influence of Louis Sullivan, whose work figures prominently in the history of American architecture. Architecture The two-storied, freestanding, brick structure with concrete block facing was designed by Davenport architect Rudolph J. Clausen. A historical survey in 1983 indicated that the building utilizes steel in its construction. It was completed for about $300,000. The words “The Democrat” are etched across the top of the building. It bears the stylistic influence of Louis Sullivan's “jewel box” structures that are associated with the work he did late in his career in the Midwest. These influences are seen in the blocking of windows at the center of the highly geometric façade. The ornamentation of the horizontal band between stories, over the entrances, and along the parapet wall all feature the stylized motifs that are commonly found in his work. References

Diedrich Busch House

The Diedrich Busch House is a historic building located on the east side of Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and as a contributing property in the McClellan Heights Historic District in 1984. Diedrich Busch Diedrich Busch (1827–1893) was born in the town of Hamminkeln in Prussia He was apprenticed to a shoemaker, which became his trade for most of his life. He immigrated to the United States in 1853, landing in New York on July 3, and then made his way to Davenport. Busch was married twice. His first wife died young and then he married Emma Balcke, whose father was the pastor at the German Methodist Episcopal Church. Busch owned and operated a grocery store in the Village of East Davenport and the family lived above the store for several years before this house was built in 1877. Over the years he had made a sizeable investment in real estate on the east side of Davenport where he developed many houses and commercial structures. Architecture While this house sits geographically in the McClellan Heights neighborhood, architecturally it fits more properly in the neighboring Village of East Davenport. East Davenport was an industrial town that began in the 1850s and was annexed into the city of Davenport by the time the decade ended. The house follows a popular Vernacular style of architecture from the mid to late 19th-century Davenport known as the McClelland style. It shows influences from other architectural styles as well, such as the bracketed eaves and the polygonal window bay on the east side that suggests the Italianate style. The round arch windows in the attic is another popular feature in Davenport homes built in this era. The veranda that wraps around from the front of the house to the west side was probably added in the early 20th-century. The same is true for the sunroom in the re-entrant angle between the houses main block and the pavilion on the west side. References

Dr. Anna E. and Andrew A. Johnstone House

The Dr. Anna E. and Andrew A. Johnstone House (also known as the Royal House) is a historic house in Des Moines, Iowa, United States. Built circa 1887, the house also hosted Dr. Anna Johnstone's osteopathy clinic from about 1906 to 1945. The building was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. It was included as a contributing property in the Polk County Homestead and Trust Company Addition Historic District in 2016.

It was a 10-room house, on a triple lot. Anna E. Johnstone was a teacher before marrying. Andrew A. Johnstone owned a china and glassware store in downtown Des Moines. They had two daughters. Andrew died of a stroke in 1892. Anna sold Andrew's business, moved with the children to a rented apartment, and rented out the house. She sold insurance and real estate and returned to school, receiving a medical degree in 1900 and becoming a doctor of osteopathy, and one of the first women to accomplish that. She moved back into the house and used part of it to operate her osteopathy practice. Anna was a student of Dr. Summerfield S. Still, who ran an osteopathic hospital and school in downtown Des Moines, and lived in North Des Moines. The house was still in the family in 2013: it was owned and occupied by Jon Royal, a great-grandson of Anna E. and Andrew A Johnstone. Anna Johnstone died in 1948.
