Mueller House

Mueller House
Location: 128 South 14th Street
Built: 1915-1916
Style: Prairie Style
Architect: Percy Dwight Bentley

Designed in 1914 for Emil T. Mueller, president of the Heileman Brewing Company, this home displays all of the classic Prairie Style forms and details and is one of the finest examples of this style in La Crosse. The limestone exterior is not original but combined with the Cherokee red siding and leaded glass windows, this home looks as if it belongs with its architectural cousins in Oak Park, Illinois, where Frank Lloyd Wright created his landmark Prairie Style originals in the first decade of the 20th century. The interior Arts and Crafts ornamentation and Prairie Style floor plan have been restored and preserved.
