The George O. Bergstrom House is located in Neenah, Wisconsin.^[2]

Neenah is a city in Winnebago County, Wisconsin, in the north central United States. It is situated on the banks of Lake Winnebago, Little Lake Butte des Morts, and the Fox River, approximately forty miles (60 km) southwest of Green Bay.

History

The house was owned by prominent businessman and local politician George O. Bergstrom. In addition, his son, George Edwin Bergstrom was raised in the house. The younger Bergstrom would become a noted architect who designed many famous buildings, arguably the most famous being The Pentagon.

George Edwin Bergstrom was an American architect who designed The Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia.

The Pentagon, in Arlington County, Virginia, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., is the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense. As a symbol of the U.S. military, the phrase The Pentagon is often used as a metonym for the Department of Defense and its leadership.

The house was added to the State Register of Historic Places in 1992 and to the National Register of Historic Places the following year.^[3]
