Kohl House
122 4th Street SE
Hampton, Iowa 50441-2238

Einar Broaten (?), c. 1920

Surprisingly little is known of Broaten, a designer/builder from Mason City. His houses often combine Prairie School elements with prevailing Foursquare forms.

A more ambitious house from Broaten’s hand is two blocks west at 105 Second Street SE.
