Own a part of history! This two-and-one-half-story Queen Anne mansion was designed by architect Edward Townsend Mix for William H. Simpson, the superintendent of Milwaukee's Northwestern Fuel Company, and constructed in 1889. It stands on a dressed limestone foundation, is clad in wood, and features a hip and gable roof with asphalt shingles that accommodates its irregular massing. Windows are a combination of wood, one-over-one, double-hung sash and fixed lights with decorative transoms, and some display original stained-glass headers and wood surrounds. The house displays several character-defining features of the Queen Anne style, including a variety of original cladding materials, asymmetrical one-story porch, cutaway bays, and corner turret.
