559 5th Avenue
The design of this one-and-one-half story Victorian eclectic style home was probably chosen from an architectural pattern book. It was built c.1904 and was first occupied by Ida and Hyrum Nelson, an agent for New York Life Insurance. An early Utah pioneer, Anna Olson Bourne, a dressmaker and designer, purchased the home in 1906. She lived here with her son, E. LeRoy, editor of the Deseret News, until 1939. The Victorian style, materials, and massing of this home contribute to the architectural character of the Avenues.
