A Page From Wichita History
Wichita History Image

Wichita Homes

Finer residences were located north of downtown until 1910, when a wave of prosperity called for more stylish homes on East Douglas. Three mansions of this period include that of Cyrus M. Beachy, above, near Douglas and Roosevelt (formerly Moser, renamed for Teddy). This point was as far east as the streetcar ever went bringing golfers within walking distance of the country club, part of which became College Hill Park.
