14. LeDuc-Lincoln House, 1887

LeDuc-Lincoln House - Queen Anne style house with wrap around porch
Dr. Elisha LeDuc began construction on this Queen Anne style house in 1887. When Mrs. LeDuc died in 1889, the house sold to David Lincoln, superintendent of Aurora Silver Plate company. The original porch that wrapped around the View Street and West Park Avenue facades was removed in the 1950s, and meticulously restored in 1999 based on historic photos. Note the shaped shingles and turned porch trim.
