Oakland County physician George W. Lowry (1850-1922) purchased this lot and a medical practice from Dr. William A. Upjohn in 1887. In 1892-1894 he built one of Hasting's finest residences, which also housed his medical office. The assymetrical composition, stately turret, decorative bargeboards and spindlework typify Queen Anne architecture. In 1922, Dr. Haroutoune A. Adrounie (1882-1936) purchased the house and Lowry's practice. Dr. Adrounie's wife, Dorothy, lived in the house until her death in 1988.
