Tower Cottage was built in 1880 and is one of the best examples of Queen Anne architecture in the town of Ridgefield, CT. The home was designed and built by Charles Betts Northrup, a carpenter and builder who grew up in town. The home was eventually occupied as a summer retreat for Maude Bouvier Davis, who would spend some summers at the house away from the big city. In Ridgefield, Maude was sometimes visited by her niece, Jackie Bouvier, later known as Jackie Kennedy Onassis, First Lady to President John F. Kennedy. Maude owned the property until 1972 and the home has been lovingly preserved since.

I was a student at Veterans Park School (roughly from 1967-1973) that was located across the street from this beautiful house. I think there was a new boy/family in town that lived in this house, which I want to say their last name was Lusk. Is there any more information on the next family that lived here after Ms. Davis. thanks!

The Ridgefield Library or Historical Society should have access to city directories from the period, maybe they will have records as to who lived here then?
