Bennett-McBride House

The Bennett-McBride House stands in the Central neighborhood of Minneapolis and ranks among the city's finest examples of Queen Anne architecture. Built in 1891 for lumber dealer H.H. Bennett, the building is part of the Healy Block Residential Historic District and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. While the facade matches the typical style of the neighborhood, the interior stands out for its exceptional woodwork. The oak paneling in the dining room and the finely crafted carvings, which are well preserved both inside and out, bear witness to the quality of craftsmanship of the era. As a historically significant property, the house reflects the city's development and the architectural shifts of the late 19th century.
