The Allen House is an Italianate house at 2 Solomont Way in Lowell, Massachusetts. The irregularly massed brick house was built in the early 1860s as the mansion house of Rollin White, who invented a type of rear-loading revolver. White worked for Samuel Colt in Hartford, Connecticut for many years before moving to Lowell and establishing his own firearms company, later the Lowell Arms Company. The house was later the home of Charles Herbert Allen, a politician prominent in state politics, and the first civilian US governor of Puerto Rico.[2]
The house was listed on National Register of Historic Places in 1982, at 57 Rolfe Street.[1] It is now on the campus of the University of Massachusetts Lowell.
