| The Hackley & Hume Historic site preserves the homes of Muskegon's most famous lumber baron, Charles H. Hackley, and his business partner, Thomas Hume. The Site envelops the visitor in a unique living space, bringing late 19th century craftsmanship to life. David S. Hopkins designed both houses and the carriage barn in a popular late nineteenth century architectural style called "Queen Anne." The complex polychromatic paint schemes, coupled with varied roof lines, elaborate chimneys, and the variety of materials used by the builders, make the buildings some of the best examples of Queen Anne residential style architecture in the country. |
