Andrew Olsen House

This house was built for Andrew Olsen, a farmer who emigrated to Utah from Denmark as a con- vert to the L.D.S. Church. The exact construction date of the house is unknown, but believed to be between 1874 and 1884. The fenestration pattern on the front elevation, with five openings on the lower level and three openings on the up- per level, is very unusual. It makes this a unique variation of the hall-parlor house which was a very common building type in the Utah Territory. Marker placed in 1990.
