Geneva is located in Alexandria, Louisiana. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 5, 1984.
It was listed as one result of a study of 10 Neo-Classical farm-plantation houses along Bayou Rapides. As for several of the others (Eden, China Grove, Hope, Island Home, Longview), Geneva was modified by addition of hood along its original gallery, termed a false gallery, which provides additional protection from the rain, detracting somewhat but not greatly from its original appearance.[2]
