Frederick C. Bogk House
2420 North Terrace Avenue
Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53211-4511

Frank Lloyd Wright, 1916

A distinctive brick residence with five bedrooms, stylistically related to the German Warehouse, both of which incorporate cast concrete ornament and presage Wright’s California works such as the Barnsdall (“Hollyhock”) House.

The art glass windows incorporate gold leaf, a prominent feature from the street.
