301 E. Spring
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.
