"Located
in Grand Island, the house is a distinct and significant example of a Nebraska
dwelling designed in the Moderne style of the 1930s, a style never widely
popular in the state. The original house, a one-story Victorian dwelling
constructed in 1893 for H. J. Bartenbach, was redesigned by local architect
Gordon Shattuck in 1937-38 for Mrs. Bartenbach, giving the house its present
appearance. Distinctive interior spaces include the open stairway and landing
area, which features a newell post and balustrade of Modernistic design
utilizing chromed rods and railings." ~ Nebraska State Historic Society website
