5693. E.L. Hersey-Jacob Bean House Stillwater, Minnesota

Creator:
Stillwater Planning Department
Date Created:
1991-08
Description:
The Ann Bean house is located at 319 Pine Street West in Stillwater, Minnesota. In 1879, the Stillwater Lumberman in noted ""Edward Hersey about to build on lots at Pine and Sixth."" Behind those few words are numerous associations: the construction of another opulent home for another of Stillwater's well-to-do lumber families, the possible involvement of architect George Orff in his second home for a Hersey brother, and the abundant use of large, eye-catching architectural elements. The Victorian home offers a virtual laundry list of stylistic elements: a tower, a veranda, a gable, a large chimney, and a two-story bay. While calling such an elaborate structure a ""starter home"" seems strange, Edward Hersey did indeed decide to start over with a new home, selling the house to fellow lumberman Jacob Bean in May, 1881 and building a new home at 320 Pine in 1883. In 1889, Jacob Bean was appointed to the prestigious and powerful position of surveyor general of logs, with the St. Paul Daily globe noting he was ""considerably more than half millionaire, and one of the heaviest log dealers in the Northwest. "" (February 3, 1889) As a political appointment, he held this position until 1893. Cynthia and Jacob made a permanent move to the Alhambra home in Stillwater in 1901, and the Lehmicke family became the home's long-term residents. In recognition of Ann Bean Lehmicke's long association with the house, it became known as the Ann Bean Mansion over time.

5694. John and Anna O'Brien House, Stillwater, Minnesota

Creator:
Stillwater Planning Department
Date Created:
1991-08
Description:
The Rivertown Inn, also known as John and Anna O'Brien House, in Stillwater, Minnesota. John O'Brien was born in Maine in 1849. Anna was born in New York State in 1855. They were married in 1879. In 1870, when John was 21, the logging firm of the O'Brien Brothers [James and John] was formed, which later merged into the firm of Anderson [James] & O'Briens. The firm did well, and by all accounts John was a prosperous man. The house has been called the first full-fledged Queen Anne style house in Stillwater, the purest specimen of that style, relatively simple and impressive. In 1896, according to a building permit application, the Stillwater Manufacturing Company added a two-story, six-by-sixteen-foot addition on the west side of the O'Brien house, and a two-story fourteen-by-thirty-foot addition on the north side, requiring rebuilding the roof. William and Mary Bean lived in the house at 306 West Olive Street into the late 1930s, moving to Pine Street shortly before William's death in 1944. The house later became the Rivertown Inn.
