The Joshua P. Young House, also known as the McGee House, is a historic house at 2445 High Street in
balloon framing popular in mid-nineteenth century Chicago; as the style was banned in Chicago after the Great Chicago Fire burned through many of the homes, surviving examples are relatively uncommon. The house's detailing is eclectic, incorporating elements of Greek Revival, Italianate, and Gothic architecture.[2]
The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 12, 1982.[1]
