The Dr. George McLelland Middleton House and Garage is a historic building located in the central part of Davenport, Iowa, United States. The residence has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1982.[1]

History

Dr. George Middleton was one of three sons, who all became doctors, of Dr. William Middleton who was a founding member of the School of Medicine at the

Army Medical Corps during World War I. The house was built on Dr. William Middleton's estate and George did not receive title to the house until 1915.[2] One of his brothers built the house across the alley. Their parent's home, which is no longer extant, was behind the brother's homes. In 1940 the Dr. George Middleton House became a duplex
. It was returned to a single-family home by the early 1980s.
