The William F. Beer Estate, in Salt Lake City, Utah, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. It included four contributing buildings.[1]
The main house, at 181 B Street, is a four-story 26-room, sandstone and brick house built in 1898–99. It is a work of architect Richard K.A. Kletting.[2]
The "Small House", at 222 Fourth Avenue, is two-story pioneer era structure built with fired brick on a sandstone rubble foundation. It was probably built before 1880 and is one of the oldest buildings in The Avenues neighborhood.[2]
It was home of physician Dr. William Francis Beer (1870-1949), who was a charter member and honorary president of the Utah Medical Society. He also was involved in mining. During World War I he attended German prisoners of war at Fort Douglas, Utah. Due to his effort in bringing the men through the influenza epidemic without any fatalities, he received an Iron Cross from [[Paul von Hindenberg in the early 1930s.[2]
