The home has been studied by local architectural students because of the richly-designed interior, with unusually large rooms, transoms over every door, and a variety of antiquated woodworking features. Originally published in a Wisconsin State Journal column entitled "Have You Seen This Madison?". The column ran from 1969 to 1977. |
