National Register of Historic Places - Orlando Brice House

Statement of Significance: A stately residence surrounded by a brick and wrought iron fence, the Or1ando Brice House is the city's most significant example of Georgian Revival architecture. Although a formulaic version of the style, the residence is a tasteful and well-proportioned reflection 6£ the early twentieth century adaptation of traditional styles to modern living. The dwelling, located on the east bank of the Chippewa River in one of the city's finest residential sections, is among the few distinguished illustrations of revival design (other examples are included in the Third Ward Historic District and another residence, the Tudor Revival home of James Barber, 132 Marston Avenue, 2J3/18, is also an individually nominated site) included in the city's architectural inventory. Historical Statement: Orlando G. Brice was the treasurer and general manager of the Wisconsin Refrigerator Company, an Eau Claire firm which was noted for its production of the "Wisconsin Peerless" refrigerator (C). Brice and his family resided in the house until c. 1934. At that time Herman Derge purchased the home which is presently owned by Charles Lewis.
