J. C. Johnson House was a historic home located at Muncie, Indiana. It was designed by the noted Fort Wayne architectural firm Grindle & Weatherhogg and built in 1897. It is a two-and-a-half-story brick dwelling with Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival style design elements. It features a projecting tower, two-story bay constructed of limestone, four slender chimneys, and a slate roof with decorative ridge trim.[2]
The home is named for its most famous resident, John C. Johnson, a prominent local businessman originally from New York. His brother and business partner, Abbott Johnson, founded the Warner Gear Company, which later formed BorgWarner.[3]: 54–56
