Amenities: The Rock Island Parks and Recreation Department invites you to visit the beautiful Hauberg Civic Center, 1300 - 24th Street, RI. High on the hillside overlooking Rock Island, Davenport, and the Mississippi River Valley, Susanne Christine Denkmann began her palatial brick mansion in 1909. Her home was completed in 1911 just before her marriage to John H. Hauberg and was their home for their married lives.

The home was designed for her by Prairie School Architect Robert C. Spencer, Jr. a friend of Frank Lloyd Wright, and is a mature work of early modern architecture.
