William Sturgis House
William Sturgis House, Historical residence in Cheyenne, United States
The William Sturgis House is a residential building in Cheyenne featuring notable architectural details. It has several roof dormers, including a special form above the front door, along with distinctive fishscale shingles in the main hall.
The house was built in 1884 as William Sturgis rose in Wyoming's cattle business and banking sector. Its creation falls during a time when wealth from ranching made such new homes possible in town.
The house shows how wealthy ranchers in Wyoming shaped their homes with styles brought from the East. This blend of frontier life and refined taste marks the town's appearance even today.
The building stands in a residential area and is easy to spot from the street. Visitors can observe the architectural features from the sidewalk and explore more details as they pass by.
The main interior hall uses fishscale shingles unusually as wall treatment rather than just for roofing. These details show how wealthy owners applied sophisticated craftsmanship techniques.
