Frantz-Dunn House, Hoskins, Benton County, OR

1998 Charles E. Peterson Prize, Entry

Significance: The Fratz-Dunn House was built circa 1869 on the remains of Fort Hoskins (1856). The Frantz family purchased the decommissioned fort site in 1866 and proceeded to construct a home next to the military hospital. The house faces the old military road on the hill (above and to the north) with its back to the Luckiamute River (below and to the south). The structure is Gothic in style and T-shaped in plan. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 as an element of the Fort Hoskins Site. The structure is slated to become the interpretive center for the Fort Hoskins Historic Park.
