The Arthur Alden House is a historic house at 24 Whitney Road in Quincy, Massachusetts. This 2-1/2 story wood frame house was designed by architect William Lofgren and built in 1909 for Arthur Alden, an executive in financial services companies. The building is a well-executed and preserved example of Queen Anne styling, with its asymmetrical facade, variety of protruding elements, and varied window types. It is the most architecturally sophisticated house on Whitney Road, which was developed residentially in the early 20th century.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
