John Wesley Ross was an architect in Davenport, Iowa.
John Wesley Ross, originally of Westfield, Massachusetts, moved to Davenport in 1874 or 1876. His son, Albert Randolph Ross, was a draughtsman in John W. Ross's office during 1884-7, and became a notable architect in his own right.
Works
Ross designed several buildings that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and are preserved. His works include:
- Davenport City Hall, 226 W. 4th St. Davenport, Iowa, built in 1895, Richardsonian Romanesque, NRHP-listed for its "association with the history of city government" and for its architecture "as an important, and increasingly rare, expression of the Richardsonian Romanesque style."
- Nicholas J. Kuhnen House, 702 Perry St., Davenport, Iowa, Italianate, NRHP-listed for its architecture
- Iowa Soldiers' Orphans' Home, 2800 Eastern Ave., Davenport, Iowa, including Classical Revival, Queen Anne, and "English Period Cottage" architecture, NRHP-listed for its architecture
- Hose Station No. 1, 117 Perry Street, Davenport, Iowa, an Italianate structure, NRHP-listed for its association with firefighting in Davenport and for its architecture "as an example of the Late Victorian Italianate in public works construction"
- South Side School, 209 S. College Ave., Geneseo, Illinois, built in 1889 a Romanesque structure, NRHP-listed in 1975.
