Nisbet House


The Nisbet House built in 1878 in Evansville, IN. Watkins F. Nisbet (1825-1886), a local merchant in the Mackey-Nisbet Dry Goods Company, a wholesale dry goods business, lived here with his wife and 8 of his 10 children. Nisbet originally contracted for a house design with Henry Boyd and Henry Brickley, Architects, for whom brothers James and Merritt Reid worked. When Boyd and Brickley closed their office, the Reid Brothers stepped in to complete their commissions.
