Downtown Wellington Historic District

Architect: Not listed
Category: single dwelling; government office; religious facility; meeting hall; commerce; recreational district

Wellington was founded in 1871, but the first railroad, the Santa Fe, did not arrive until 1879. During these first eight years, businesses constructed buildings using locally available materials. The first permanent masonry buildings were constructed in the years immediately following the arrival of the railroad. Some buildings, like the Arlington Hotel (1883), were built using local brick. Others, like the Marble Block (1885) were constructed of local limestone. Through the years, these permanent buildings replaced the wood fronts, and by the early twentieth century, hard-fired pressed brick had replaced soft local brick as the preferred construction material. As a collection, the buildings in downtown Wellington interpret the history of the community's permanent commercial development, from the construction of the first masonry buildings in the late 1870s to the construction of free-standing office buildings in the 1950s.

The H. F. Smith House is a well-preserved example of a transitional Queen Anne Free Classic residence. Originally built circa 1886 as a one-story Victorian cottage, the house had significant revisions in the late 1890s by builder and architect Elbert Dumont of Wichita, Kansas who converted the home to a two-story residence.
