From the University of Wisconsin Digital Collection:
"Townsend, a Chicago architect, designed this elaborate Queen
Anne Style residence for the son of Timothy Jackman. (See 55
South Atwood.) The complex exterior includes steeply-pitched
roofs and projecting balconies, turrets and bays. Richly-
textured surfaces are covered with shingles, panels, and a
variety of turned and scroll-sawed trim. Among the many
window treatments is an eyebrow dormer set into a hexagonal
turret roof."
