The Crowell Mansion was built in 1884
by Christopher C. Crowell, son of Massachusetts capitalist and philanthropist,
who came to Washington County in 1869. The house, built on an eleven
acre tract at the end of Grant and Lincoln Streets, was a three story structure
with twenty-two room, an imposing example of the "High Victorian" style in
domestic architecture of the opulent 1880s. It was
demolished
in 1971.
