George Kelly House
1924 Binney Street
1904
Architect unknown
Neo-Classical Revival Style
Designated Omaha Landmark: April 12, 1983
The George Kelly house is significant as one of the finest examples of the Neo-Classical Revival style of architecture to be found in North Omaha.
The classically detailed structure was directly influenced by the grand Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition that had been held nearby in 1898, just six years before the house was constructed.
The Kelly house is located in Kountze Place, a late ninteenth century neighborhood that was home to many of the city’s most successful business people.
