John S. Whitman House, International Style residence in Midland, United States.
The John S. Whitman House features three rectangular blocks stacked upon each other with strong horizontal lines and vertical bay windows at 2407 Manor Street.
Commissioned in 1934 by former Midland mayor John Whitman, this residential project earned the grand prize for architecture at the 1937 Paris International Exhibition.
The structure represents a milestone in American residential architecture, designed by Alden B. Dow with an emphasis on geometric forms and functional spaces.
The National Register of Historic Places designation provides protection for the house, making any modifications subject to preservation guidelines and regulations.
The residence incorporates unit blocks from Whitman's own manufacturing business, creating a direct connection between the owner's industry and the building materials.
