George Kelly House
1924 Binney Street
1904
Architect unknown
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 sucessful business people.

(This building is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places.)
