Picture of property 1101 Ohio Street
Lawrence (Douglas County)
Listed in State Register 11/22/2008

Architect: Griffith, William Alexander
Category: single dwelling

On the eastern slope of Lawrence's Mount Oread, the Bailey House is just a few blocks from the University of Kansas campus and is a contributing resource in the National Register-listed Oread Historic District. As the university expanded in the early 1900s, this neighborhood became a popular place for faculty and staff to build residences. Artist and architect William Alexander Griffith designed the house, which was erected in 1908 as a residence for E. H. S. Bailey, head of KU's chemistry department from 1883 to 1933. Bailey Hall on the KU campus was built in 1905 to house the chemistry department, and is listed in the National Register in part for its associations with Bailey as a reflection of his successful career. His residence, which blends several popular styles of the early 1900s including Richardsonian Romanesque, Dutch Colonial Revival, and Craftsman, is nominated for its architectural significance.
