Collins House, Neoclassical residence in East Davenport, United States.

The Collins House features symmetrical proportions, a central two-story structure, and a front porch added in 1908 to the original 1860 farmhouse design.

Miles Augustus Collins, who established Scott County's first cheese factory, constructed this residence in 1860 and his family maintained ownership until 1963.

The residence demonstrates the transition of Davenport from agricultural roots to urban development through its architectural elements and subsequent modifications.

Located at 1234 East 29th Street, the building currently functions as the Southeast Iowa Senior Information Hub, providing resources for elderly citizens.

The property transfer to Davenport Park Board in 1963 included an arrangement allowing Collins sisters to remain in residence without payment until their passing.

Location: Iowa

Architectural style: Neoclassical architecture
