The Daniel T. Newcome Double House, also known as Brady Manor, is a located on the Brady Street Hill in Davenport, Iowa, United States. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1983.〔 ==Daniel and Patience Newcomb== Daniel and Patience Newcomb farmed 1,200 acres in Scott County, Iowa. In 1842 he produced an unheard of 30,000 bushels of corn.〔 In the 1850s they moved to Davenport and they had a large home built on top of the hill overlooking the downtown area. They had this house built from 1866 to 1867. City directories from that time show that the Newcombs did not occupy the house. This is usually an indication that the person whose name is on the structure was independently wealthy or derived his income from several ventures including real estate. After Daniel’s death in 1870, Patience donated the funds to build Newcomb Presbyterian Memorial Chapel and donated the land for the Academy of Sciences, the forerunner of the Putnam Museum. The Newcomb's residence became St. Luke's Hospital in 1892.
