The Walter-Gimble House is located in the west end of Davenport, Iowa, United States. The residence has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1983.[1]
History
Bernhart and Agnes Walter lived here beginning in 1890 and lived here for a few years. He worked as a brewer at the Kohler & Lange Brewery. J.J. Gimble, who was a blacksmith, and his wife Mary lived here after the Walters. The city directories do it list who the previous occupants of the house were.[2]
Architecture
The house appears to be an expansion of the three-bay McClellan style, which was popular in Davenport after the American Civil War. The four-bay house follows a rectangular plan. There is an entrance on the second floor, which suggests the house may have been a duplex from its early years.[2]
