The Donald D. Tuttle House is a historic house at 12 Gabby Lane in Concord, New Hampshire. This modest 1.5 story Colonial Revival Cape style house was built in 1933 by Louis and Frank Blake. A single-bay garage was built at the same time. The house is most significant as the home of Donald D. Tuttle from 1935-1945. Tuttle was hired by the state in 1925 as its publicity director, heading a department that over time became the State Planning and Development Commission. He was a leader in promoting tourism in the state, in particular downhill skiing. Due in part to his efforts, the state constructed the Cannon Mountain Tramway (1934–38).[2] The house was moved to Gabby Lane in 2009 to make way for the Langley Parkway.[3]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995, at its old address, 257 Pleasant Street.[1]
