}}Briggs Terrace, also known as Evergreen Lane, is a nationally recognized historic district located in Nevada, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1] At the time of its nomination it consisted of eight resources, which included six contributing buildings, one contributing site, and two non-contributing buildings.[2] This estate was established and built by Otis Briggs, a local banker who founded Farmers Bank in Nevada. He arrived in town in 1857 from Des Moines, four years after Nevada and Story County were founded. He worked in a variety of commercial ventures before becoming a banker. Briggs invested heavily in real estate, and he became one of the largest land owners in the county.[2]

The two-story, brick, Italianate style house was completed in 1879. It features floor-length windows, a wraparound porch, and a bay window. It is surrounded by an {{convert|8.4|acre|sing=on}} planted grounds, which contribute to the historic nature of the district.[2] The other historic building located here are the carriage house (c. 1879), barn (c. 1879), and late 19th century out buildings.
