The Weston House is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places because it is a wellpreserved example of the typical residential structures built in Jackson Hole in the 1930s. The building highlights the residential origins and history of downtown Jackson in what is now a decidedly commercial part of the town, and through its massing, design, materials, setback, and overall integrity offers a glimpse into local historic building and settlement patterns in the early decades of the twentieth century. The house was constructed in 1936 by community leaders Harry and Stella Weston. It is locally significant under Criteria A and C. Under Criterion A, the property is representative of the explosive growth that occurred in Jackson in the 1920s and 1930s. Under Criterion C, it is a typical example of the small frame residences that were constructed in Jackson during the same decades. The Weston house also sits on one of the last lots in downtown Jackson to have avoided major redevelopment and infill.
