History
The original builder of this house cannot be determined.[2] William Claussen lived here from 1888 until around 1915. He worked as a local dealer in coal, lime, cement, and drain tile.
Architecture
The house was an example of a popular form found in the city of Davenport: two-story, three–bay front gable, with an entrance off center and a small attic window below the roof peak.[3] This house had a simplified classical pediment, which was accomplished by attaching a single molding strip to the wall parallel at the edge of the roof.[4] The molding featured a decorative element from the Italianate style, bracketed eaves. A small columned porch with a flat roof completed the front. Another architectural element to the house was a bay window that was featured in the middle of the east side of the house.
