Английская Википедия:Fred Reiger Houses
Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Fred Reiger Houses in Boise, Idaho, are two bungalows designed by Tourtellotte & Hummel and constructed by contractors Lemon & Doolittle in 1910. House A includes an inset, cross facade porch with large, square piers supporting the forward extending roof. The roof extends well beyond the side facing gables and features a long, low dormer above the porch. House B features a cross facade porch with battered piers, a front facing gable, and raked eaves supported by figure four brackets. The houses were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
Fred Reiger
Fred J. Reiger, also spelled Rieger, was a resident of Salt Lake City, and he may never have lived in either of the Fred Reiger Houses.[1] He operated a mercantile business with his brother, Erwin A. Rieger, in Salt Lake City until 1902 when Erwin Rieger moved to Ontario and established the Oregon Forwarding Company, later Beckman & Rieger.[2] Fred Rieger remained in Salt Lake City to become a whiskey and cigar distributor, working under the business name of Rieger & Lindley, later Fred J. Rieger & Co. Both the Oregon Forwarding Company and Rieger & Lindley were owned and managed by Friedrich J. Kiesel, a wealthy Utah business owner and politician,[3] and Kiesel may have been a relative of the Riegers.[2]
The Riegers' mother, Marie (Kiesel) Rieger, occupied house B, the smaller of the Fred Reiger Houses.[4] When Fred Rieger died in 1919, his will provided that Marie Rieger receive both houses. Erwin Rieger administered Fred Rieger's estate, valued at over $208,000.[5]
The Fred Reiger Houses were moved in 2018 to allow for expansion of St. Luke's Boise Medical Center.[6]
