Description
412 W. Prairie Ave. John H. Culver home, built around 1887. It was sold to Roy Phillips in 1950 by Elizabeth C. Shellabarger, daughter of John H. Culver. Phillips remodeled it into apartments. A fire in 1979 caused extensive damage to the attic and third floor of the home and it was in a state of disrepair for many years and almost demolished. The home originally consisted of ten bedrooms and a tiled ballroom on the third floor.
