Walnut-Dollison Historic District, Garrett W Hackney House, 819 East Walnut St Springfield, Greene County, MO
Acquired by Garrett W. Hackney, Springfield City Clerk, in 1865, this large two-story frame house has remained in Hackney family hands since. It was built ca. 1880 as a single-story el-shaped structure and was radically altered ca. 1900 with the expansion of the first story and addition of a full second. The result is a somewhat peculiarly proportioned building which displays stylistic characteristics of two distinct periods. Perhaps the oldest remaining house in the study area, the Hackney House has been well maintained and is in good condition today. It is probably the most significant domestic structure in the study area.
