Missouri Contributions to American Architecture

This photo taken from John A. Bryan’s Missouri’s Contribution to American Architecture (1928) shows the Samuel Cupples house and a very similar Richardsonian Romanesque residence in Kansas City.

The George F. Winter home, designed by William S. Matthews of Kansas City, was built near the intersection of Troost Avenue and 30th Street. George F. Winter was a prominent Kansas City realtor.

The Winter family sold the home in 1925 to the Horner Institute of Fine Arts. (The Horner Institute merged with the Kansas City Conservatory of Music, antecedents to the University of Missouri Kansas City Conservatory of Music.).

The building is no longer extant.
