Timken House

This Queen Anne Victorian house, designed by the prominent architects Comstock and Trotsche, was built in 1888.[1] It was the last residence of inventor Henry Timken (1831-1909). Henry Timken Jr. (grandson of inventor Henry Timken), along with the Putnam sisters, co-founded the Timken Museum of Art in Balboa Park, a short distance from the home. [2] The Timken House became a private residence in 1965.[1]
