Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Emerson and Lucretia Sensenig House, also known as the Marjorie Vogel House, is a Шаблон:Frac-story Foursquare house in Boise, Idaho, designed by Watson Vernon and constructed in 1905. The house features a hip roof with centered dormers and a half hip roof over a prominent, wraparound porch. Porch and first-floor walls are brick, and second-floor walls are covered with square shingle veneer. A second-story shadow box with four posts is inset to the left of a Palladian style window, emphasized by three curved rows of shingles. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.[1]

History

Emerson S. and Lucretia C. Sensenig purchased property for the house in 1902 from Charles F. and Katherine O. Koelsch,[2] and they hired architect Watson Vernon to build the 8-room Sensenig House in 1905.[3] After the death of Emerson Sensenig in 1927, the house was purchased by Howard and Alida Stein.[4][5] The Steins sold the house in 1937 to Marjorie D. Vogel. In 1991 Kathleen Blackburn purchased the house, and it was restored to original condition by Blackburn and her husband.[1]

Emerson Sensenig founded the Boise Cold Storage Co. in 1903.[5] He also helped to found the Boise Brokerage Co., Ltd., in that year,[6] and in 1907 he helped to found the Boise Jobbers Association, an organization of warehouse and cold storage companies located in what is now Boise's South Eighth Street Historic District.[7]

After the death of Emerson Sensenig, Lucretia Sensenig moved to Cleveland.[8]

Architect Watson Vernon designed three other buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places: Moscow Carnegie Library (1905), Immanuel Lutheran Church (Seattle) (1907), and State Training School for Girls Administration Building (1914).
