Cottage at 1514 and 1516 W. Second Street

The Cottage at 1514 and 1516 West Second Street is a historic house in Davenport, Iowa, recognized for its architectural significance. Identified as one of the earliest house types in the city, it showcases a blend of Georgian and Greek Revival styles, featuring a full-size front porch inspired by Mississippi Valley French tradition. Although the current porch is not original, the cottage's stone foundation and symmetrical 5-bay facade reflect its historical roots. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, making it a notable site for tourists and researchers interested in early American architecture.
