Frank Burton House
Location: 1018 Cass Street
Built: 1884
Style: Queen Anne

Mr. Burton, the original owner and a local grain broker and customs agent, was tragically murdered by a mentally unbalanced riverman before the house was finished.  This house is a more modest example of the popular Queen Anne style and it also has some late Victorian Stick details.  This house is another Ken Riley/Jay Lokken restoration.
