Newell A. Whiting House

The Newell A. Whiting House is a historic building located in Onawa, Iowa, United States. Whiting was a hardware merchant and sawmill owner, who built this house for his second wife. It is a simple, yet a fairly pure, example of the Italianate style constructed in the mid-19th century. The 2½-story brick house features bracketed eaves, wall dormers, tall, narrow windows with metal hood moldings, bay windows on the main floor, and a long side porch on the east elevation. It is capped with a hip roof and a cupola. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
