Olson House
411 Fifth Street
Griswold, Iowa 51535

Designer unknown, c. 1916

A Craftsman dwelling with Prairie features. Unfortunately, the house has recently been covered in vinyl siding.

Also of interest is the Mission Revival Gude House next door, very unusual in Iowa, and the somewhat more typical Busse and Rabe bungalows across the street.
