The John H. and Christina Yost House is a historic house in Lincoln, Nebraska. It was built by Nathan Bishop with red bricks and limestone in 1912, and designed in the Renaissance Revival style by architect George A. Brilinghof.[2] The owner, John Y. Yost, was a Russian immigrant of German descent who first arrived in Wisconsin in 1876 and moved to Nebraska in 1877.[2] He lived in the house with his wife Christina, who was also a Russian immigrant, until his death in 1939.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 26, 2002.[1]
