The Pink Lady

Uploaded: January 24, 2014

Description

Across the street from the Carson Mansion sits another grand Queen Anne. The home was built in 1889 by William and Sarah as a wedding present to their son John Milton Carson.
The pink and white color of the home has endeared itself to locals as the “Pink Lady.” The clustering of the Carson Mansion and Pink Lady at the foot of Second and M Streets, certainly helps to define the boundaries of Eureka’s Old Town which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
