The John Moses Browning House is a historic house within the Ogden Central Bench Historic District in Ogden, Utah, United States, that is individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).[1] It was the primary residence of American gun maker John Moses Browning from the turn of the 20th century until his death in 1926.
Description
[edit]The house was built between 1890 and 1900 and is located at 505 27th Street. The home is a 6,700-square-foot, 2+1⁄2-story, eight-bedroom mansion built of sandstone and red brick.[2] The home remained in the Browning family until 1940 when it was sold and converted into apartments. In the mid-1940s the building was purchased by the YWCA and housed a women's shelter before being sold again to a law firm that used it as office space. In 2001 it was renovated again and converted back into a private residence.[3] The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[4] It was listed on the NRHP April 24, 1973.[1]
