Muscatine Avenue Moffitt Cottage Historic District
Muscatine Avenue Moffitt Cottage Historic District, National Register Historic District in Iowa City, United States.
The Muscatine Avenue district contains five stone cottages with steep roofs, dormers, and large tapering chimneys along residential streets.
Howard F. Moffitt constructed over one hundred small cottages between 1924 and 1943, addressing housing needs in this growing university city.
The district exemplifies regional architectural development through its mix of English Cottage, Storybook, and American Craftsman design elements.
The cottages feature built-in garages, multiple interior levels, and various exterior materials including stone, shingle, and wood siding.
Each house displays different architectural characteristics through recycled materials such as trolley track rails, reclaimed brick, and salvaged timber.
