Governor David Butler House (1869), Lincoln, Nebraska

Description = Governor David Butler House (1869), Lincoln, Nebraska, designed by John Keys Winchell (1841-1877), Architect. This undated view shows brick walls, and simple segmental arches over the second story windows. Elaborate hoods are shown over the arches beneath the porch. Compare with an earlier photograph File:RG3271-22 SFN4416 1w.jpg that shows the walls as stone with elaborate window hoods throughout; the stone was probably Frear Stone, a concrete-like artificial stone that enjoyed some favor in early Lincoln, but did not weather well. The Frear Stone hoods on the Thomas P. Kennard House were covered in metal by about 1878. It appears the stone veneer of Butler's house was repaced with brick perhaps about the same time.
