David Gordon House and Collins Log Cabin
David Gordon House and Collins Log Cabin, Rustic house complex in Columbia, Missouri.
The David Gordon House and Collins Log Cabin feature a two-story frame I-house and a single pen log house with a loft design.
Built in 1818 and 1823 respectively, the Collins Log Cabin and David Gordon House represent the first permanent dwellings in Columbia, Missouri.
The structures demonstrate early 19th-century construction methods in Missouri, with wooden materials and traditional building techniques from the pioneer period.
The Collins Log Cabin now stands at the Boone County Historical Society campus after being relocated from its original location at Stephens Lake Park.
The David Gordon House experienced multiple expansions in the 1830s, 1890s, and 1930s before being destroyed by arson in the early 1990s.
