Clifton (Davenport, Iowa)

Clifton is a historic building located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States.

The columns that hold up the portico follow the Renaissance Ionic order after Vincenzo Scamozzi.

Between them is a cast concrete balustrade that was extended in the early 20th-century in a semi-circular fashion beyond the portico.

The north front of the house has a one-story porch that covers the middle three bays.

[3] When the house was built there were single-story, two-bay wings on the east and west sides.

Sometime after 1905, the porches were eliminated and a second floor was added to both wings when the house was converted into apartments.
