William J. & Fannie Olcott Residence
William Bray designed what is perhaps Duluths most impressive example of Georgian architecture for William Olcott when Olcott was president of the Duluth, Missabe & Northern Railroad. Olcott would later become president of the Oliver Mining Company. The Olcotts founded the Fanny Bailey Olcott Girl Scout camp on Half Moon Lake near Eveleth and donated the land for Virginias Olcott Park. From 1939 to 1960 the house served as the University of Minnesota Duluths Music Conservatory.
