The Lawrence Soule House is an historic house at 11 Russell Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is a 2+12-story brick building, with asymmetrical massing typical of the Queen Anne period. Surface texture is varied by different types of brick patterning, and there are a variety of gables, projections, and irregularly placed chimneys. It was built in 1879 for Lawrence Porter Soule to a design by Frank Maynard Howe, an apprentice at the firm of Ware & Van Brunt. The building received immediate notice in the architectural press, and is a rare architect-designed house in North Cambridge. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. [1]
