717 Jackson

Ward's final Lincoln Park house, at 717 Jackson, was built between 1890 and 1895, apparently for A. P. buck, a local rancher. The stepped-back asymmetrical roof plan (with truncated front gable and full-length dormer windows) is typical of the Queen Anne style. Here, however, the eclectic design sensibilities of the Victorian era are evident as the porch columns represent yet another design variation join the seemingly infinite array of folk Victorian spindle work common throughout Las Vegas.
