Wilson-Evans-Collinge House

560 North Wabash Street

Built: c. 1900

Style: Shingle

Frank P. Wilson originally owned this home. Mr. Wilson served Wabash as an insurance salesman.

The flat, wooden shingles siding the house classify this structure as a late example of the Shingle Style. The two dominant features of the house are the two-story rounded turret at the northeast corner with pyramidal roof and the expansive Arts and Crafts-style porch and porte-cochère that adjoins the southern part of the façade. The porch was probably added in the early 20th century.
