The Patrick F. McCarthy House is a historic building (as of 1984)[1] located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States. Patrick McCarthy was the president of McCarthy Improvement Co., a local construction company that specializes in building and paving streets.[2] Patrick and his wife Alice had the house built in 1905 and lived there into the 1950s. The Tudor Revival style residence sits high on a hill above Marquette Street. The first story is covered in dark red face brick, and the second and third floors sport the half-timbering for which the architectural style is known. Another architecture feature is that the upper floors protrude above the floor below. The semi-circular bay is another defining feature.
