4700 West Lake Harriet Parkway, Minneapolis, MN, USA
4700 West Lake Harriet Parkway Home History Bertrand and Chamberlin, 1910 A taste of Vienna on Lake Harriet. This distinctive house mixes Prairie Style elements, such as the grouped corner windows on the second floor, with Art Nouveau features that appear to be drawn from the contemporaneous Viennese Secession movement in Austria. Secessionist details include segmental arch windows and small outbreaks of tile arranged in geometric pat- terns that pepper the house's otherwise smooth white walls. The most unusual feature of all is a second-story frieze depicting knights and maidens in a forest scene. Citation: Millett, Larry. AIA Guide to the Minneapolis Lake District.
