Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The John R. and Nell Commons House, known as "Hocheera," is located at 1645 Norman Way in Madison, Wisconsin. This large stucco house was designed by noted Madison bungalow designer Cora Tuttle and constructed in 1913. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. Until 1937, it was the home of John R. Commons, a University of Wisconsin professor of economics. Commons was nationally significant as the author of important social reforms in the Progressive Era that helped pave the way for Roosevelt's New Deal. Commons was the mentor of many outstanding economists and is credited with originating "the Wisconsin Idea" in which university faculty serve as advisors to state government.

This is an image of a place or building that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in the United States of America. Its reference number is 85000572.
