        This Greek Revival residence was built in the 1860's.  The primary entrance on the south is centrally located and is protected by a one-story frame porch.  There are end chimneys on the east and west.  To the west, the basement is exposed and has an entrance onto the sidewalk.  Steps lead up to a second story entrance on the ell.  Oral history indicates the main block of the house was retrieved from the Missouri River during a flood.  Dr. Swap lived in the residence at the turn of the century.  The residence sits on an embankment with a molded concrete block and stone retaining wall to the south and west.
