About This Home

As of July 2017

Imagine 1889. W.W. Loomis built his mansion, with 10 1/2 foot main floor ceilings, at 331 S 8th Street. The Eifel Tower opened as the world's tallest building. Grover Cleveland and Bejamin Harrison were president. North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Washington were admitted to the union. Imagine what the world was like when this home was built. Imagine yourself living in 1889. Imagine.
