description

Summary

Significance: The Swain-Vincent house is important architecturally as a well-preserved example of a type of Victorian house to be found in cities throughout the United States: the town residence built for a prosperous businessman of the post Civil War period. Historically the house is significant because its second owner, Webb Vincent, was important in the gypsum industry in Fort Dodge.
