Simon E. Dow House
The Simeon E. Dow House (also known as the Dow House) is a historic house located on Prince Street in Dow City, Iowa.
The two-story, 13-room, red brick house was built in 1872 by Simon E. Dow (Simeon E. Dow), who in 1869 co-founded Dow City and later became one of its leading businessmen. In 1970, it was bought by the Crawford County Conservation Board to be restored and is now open for public tours.
