Built around 1888, the John Manson Munro House stands in Cuba, MO, right along the old road. It is a two-and-a-half-story red brick house in the Queen Anne style, with bays jutting out on several sides and a porch that wraps around it. For Route 66 travellers walking Cuba's historic center, it is an easy architectural stop just steps from other listed buildings.
What is John Manson Munro House?
The house has the lively, uneven outline that marks the Queen Anne style. Rather than a simple box, it has an irregular plan with several projecting bays that break up the brick walls. The wraparound porch is its friendliest feature and the best view from the street.
It joined the National Register in 2014.
Visiting John Manson Munro House: tips
This is a private house, so enjoy it from the street or public sidewalk and respect the owners' privacy. A few minutes is enough for a look and a photo. It sits right among other historic stops: the Uptown Cuba Historic District, the Cuba City Jail and Cuba Lodge No. 312 A.F. and A.M. are each about 0.1 miles away, so it fits easily into a short walk. The Wagon Wheel motel is about half a mile off if you want to stay the night.
