Judge Cyrus Ball House, Second Empire residence in Lafayette, United States.
The Judge Cyrus Ball House features a three-story mansard roofed entrance tower, intricate wood details, and limestone foundation on South Ninth Street.
Built between 1868 and 1869, this mansion belonged to Cyrus Ball, who served as Justice of the Peace and contributed to Lafayette's railroad development.
The interior maintains original elements including marble fireplaces and nineteenth-century paintings of the Ball family by local artist George Winter.
The property includes a two-story rectangular carriage house with Tudor-arched doors and stands within the Ninth Street Hill Neighborhood Historic District.
Construction records show that a railroad carload of slate was transported from Buffalo, New York, for the roofing at a cost of $25,000 in the 1860s.
