Summit Terrace, Summit Avenue, Cathedral Hill, Saint Paul, MN
Built in 1889, this Richardsonian Romanesque-style set of rowhouses, clad in brick and rusticated brownstone, were designed by Clarence H. Johnston, Sr. & William H. Willcox. One of the rowhouses, located towards the western end of the row, was inhabited by F. Scott Fitzgerald and his parents between 1918 and 1920. Most of the rowhouses feature stone facades with decorative trim details, arched windows, trapezoidal bay windows, oriel windows, gable parapets, and porches with arched openings. Other rowhouses demonstrate more Renaissance Revival-style features with broad overhanging eaves, shallow oriel windows, and rectilinear windows. The F. Scott Fitzgerald House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and listed as a National Historic Landmark in 1971, with the row being listed as a contributing structure in the Historic Hill District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
