692 17th - Sherman Hill House

This Victorian-style home was built in 1893. It has been used as a private residence and a nursing home. The first floor housed a restaurant in 1988 when a blaze ruined the interior. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing resource in the Sherman Hill Historic District.

This house is on the DSMRC 2008 list of Des Moines' Seven Most Endangered Buildings.
