A different angle of the Sherman-Gilbert House (1887) in San Diego's Heritage Park. Built in the Stick-Eastlake style, the house was the first structure moved to Heritage Park, in the spring of 1971 and has been designated City Historic Site #8.
This distinctive Victorian Lady, with its "widow's walk" cupola or belvedere and circular window, was occupied from 1892 to 1965 by Bess and Gertrude Gilbert. These spinster sisters were patrons of art and music and had many famous entertainers including Marian Anderson, Arthur Rubinstein, Yehudi Menuhin and Ernestine Schumann-Heink visit their home. Today, it's an elegant reminder of San Diego's rich heritage...
