“The Pinc,” as the new owners now affectionally call her, has seen a lot of history through her jewel-toned, stained-glass windows on 202 M Street in Eureka, California.
Perched on Humboldt Bay, the majestic, historic home was built in 1889 by lumber magnate William Carson as a wedding gift for his son J. Milton Carson and his wife Mary Amelia (Bell) Carson. William lived across the street in the renowned Carson mansion, considered one of the grandest Victorian homes in America.
The J. Milton Carson House, locally known as “The Pink Lady” over the years, is crowned in iconic, ornamental, Victorian features. Famous as a classic example of the Queen Anne architectural style, her large bay windows, delicate cornices, graceful turret, and lacey gingerbread trim attract tourists and architectural enthusiasts alike.
