艾达·梅·麦克拉斯基·赖斯, 她是科罗拉多斯普林斯一位著名医生的遗孀, 这栋房子建于1927年. Born in 伊利诺斯州 in 1861, she married fellow Richfield native David Rice in 1883. 医生大米, 生于1855年, completed his medical studies at Missouri Medical College in 1888, 这对夫妇搬到了切尼, 堪萨斯, 他在那里开了一家诊所,还有他们唯一的女儿, 埃塞尔, 出生. 1892年全家搬到科罗拉多斯普林斯之后, David Rice became the personal physician of mining millionaire and philanthropist, 温菲尔德·斯科特·斯特拉顿. 斯特拉顿的关系对赖斯来说是无价的, 谁在采矿业中发展了经济利益, 运输, 和银行. David Rice served as president of the 科罗拉多斯普林斯 and Interurban Railway, president of the Stratton-Cripple Creek Mining and Development Company, 外汇国家银行的董事, 波特兰金矿公司的副总裁.

斯特拉顿于1902年去世, David Rice became one of the trustees of the vast Stratton estate, 这个角色的职责很快取代了他的医疗实践. The 科罗拉多斯普林斯 Gazette judged that 医生大米 "led the forces that in the prolonged legal battle retained the Stratton holdings intact from the assaults of various interests to claim a share of the estate and break the will of Mr. Stratton." The Rice family lived at 528 North Tejon Street, where David Rice died in January 1923.

丈夫去世四年后,艾达. Rice erected this dwelling at the southwest corner of North 级联大道 and West Uintah Street. 科罗拉多斯普林斯的建筑师Thomas P. Barber designed the residence, which is his last documented work in the city. Barber practiced architecture in 科罗拉多斯普林斯 (associated with other architects or in solo practice) from the late-1880s to about 1927, 当他搬到南加州时. In 1902 Barber's younger brother, William, joined him in a partnership (Thomas P. Barber and Brother) that prepared plans for buildings in the city and around the state. 这家公司专门从事教堂建筑, 在丹佛等城市建造宗教建筑, 蒙特罗斯, 栅栏, 特立尼达拉岛, 和生. 科罗拉多斯普林斯 designs included several buildings on the campus of the Colorado School for the Deaf and Blind, 希巴德 & 公司(1914年)和Acacia公园演奏台(1914年). 该公司还规划了几座学校建筑. 除了, Thomas Barber collaborated with other architects on notable public buildings, such as the National Register-listed 科罗拉多斯普林斯 City Hall with Thomas MacLaren in 1904.

历史上的这座建筑:

1873年,哈斯克尔向西前往丹佛, Colorado for the sake of the health of his daughter 弗洛伦斯 Edwards. 同年晚些时候她去世了. 在她的记忆里, he proposed before the Congregational Association of Colorado to start the first college in the Rocky Mountain region, 科罗拉多大学. Haskell became the college's first financial officer and his brother-in-law, 乔纳森·爱德华兹, 成为第一个教官和执行官.

Residing in this house with a housekeeper, Ida Rice lived here until her death in October 1937. A Gazette-Telegraph obituary described her as a "prominent and widely known 科罗拉多斯普林斯 resident.跟着太太. Rice's death, her daughter's family occupied the dwelling. 哈利啊. and 埃塞尔 (Rice) Puffer, and their son, Herbert, lived here until 1941. Harry Puffer was associated with the Puffer Mercantile Company, a wholesale grocery firm. In 1908, he joined the business started by his father, L.A. 还有本世纪初的米洛·罗威尔. By 1940, 哈里·帕弗领导着这家企业, whose trade area extended from Castle Rock to Fountain and from Leadville to the 堪萨斯 line.

1941年3月,埃德加. 研究, 一个来自哈钦森的“著名的堪萨斯石油商”, 买下了房子, 被描述为“一栋漂亮的两层红砖建筑”.”研究, 谁和他的妻子住在这里, 月桂树, continued his career as an oil operator and producer in 科罗拉多斯普林斯. 科罗拉多大学 acquired the dwelling for $42,500 in early 1961 for use as a residence hall. The 14-room dwelling boasted two fireplaces, three-and-a-half baths, and a full basement. The interior featured a central hall with curved staircase, 一间带拼花地板和一座大壁炉的客厅, 还有一间精致的意大利日光房.

学院将这所房子重新命名为“哈斯克尔之家”,显然是为了纪念托马斯·尼尔森·哈斯克尔牧师, who was instrumental in the founding of 科罗拉多大学. Haskell, 1826年生于纽约西部, moved with his parents to Ohio while he was still an infant. 在俄亥俄州,他就读于迈阿密大学, as well as Andover and Union Theological seminaries in the East. Haskell served as pastor of Congregational churches in Washington, D.C., 波士顿, 和极光, 伊利诺斯州, 教授修辞学, 文学, 美学, 威斯康星大学政治经济学教授. 1873年初, 哈斯克尔一家搬到了丹佛, hoping that the climate would improve the health of oldest daughter, 弗洛伦斯. 她于1873年10月去世, and later that month at the annual conference of Congregational churches of Colorado Territory Haskell proposed a Christian college be established in his daughter's memory.

Haskell led a committee that studied the feasibility of establishing such an institution at various locations around Colorado. 1874年1月, 科罗拉多斯普林斯, 谁提供了土地和配套资金, 被选为“赌博正规的十大网站.该机构于今年2月获得了特许状, and Haskell served as a member of its first board of trustees and the school's fundraising solicitor. His efforts to procure donations were not successful, but Haskell stayed on the board until 1878. 尽管晚年健康状况不佳, he was a prolific writer and an educational activist until his death in 1906.

The house is considered one of the finest examples of Colonial Revival design crafted in 科罗拉多斯普林斯. Although most Colonial Revival style dwellings erected in the city during the first two decades of the twentieth century were frame, this dwelling is composed of brick laid in an English bond pattern. The house now serves as a coeducational French language immersion residence. Haskell的房子 was listed in the National Register in 2006 in recognition of its historical and architectural importance.
