House
1938, Arthur Lacy Worswick. 431 S. 6th St.
  • (Photograph by Julie Nicoletta)

This single-story frame and stucco house has an L-shaped plan, with a low octagonal cupola rising above the junction of the two wings. Wraparound metal casement windows at the main corners of the house nod to the Moderne style. Worswick designed a number of buildings in Las Vegas during the boom of the 1930s and 1940s.
