Bungalow House, 1506 Thompson Avenue, Des Moines, Polk County, IA
Summary
Significance: This is a good example of the bungalow house type that swept through the county in the 1910s and the 1920s. Although less aesthetically important than the Prairie style that was developing during the same period, the bungalow became far more popular and affordable to working-class Americans.
