Amis House (Fordyce, Arkansas)
The Amis House is a historic house at the northeast corner of 2nd and Mark Streets in Fordyce, Arkansas. Built c. 1900, the two story wood frame house is one of only two documented I-houses in Dallas County, and is further unusual because it appears in an urban rather than rural setting. The basic I-house plan is extended by a projecting two-story gable bay in the center of the main facade, which has the entry below and a pair of double-hung sash windows above. A single-story porch extends across the front, supported by four Tuscan columns.[2]
