Edward O. Morris Residence
1200 Hoel Parkway
Architect unknown
Built 1919-20

The low-pitched hipped roof, exaggerated eaves, and one-story subordinate porch of this home are features linked to the Prairie Style of architecture. Many vernacular expressions of this style were found in the Midwestern states due to the publication of pattern books, homemaker magazines, and professional journals such as The Western Architect which publicized this short-lived style. The first resident was Edward O. Morris, owner of the Reliable Furniture Co.
