Leavenworth (Leavenworth County)
Listed in National Register Oct 8, 2009

Architect: unknown
Area of Significance: manufacturing facility
Architectural Style(s): Other

The Helmers Manufacturing Company Building was built in 1909 to accommodate an expanding furniture manufacturing business. What began as a small manufacturer of barber chairs that operated out of two downtown storefronts in the late 1880s, expanded into a regional furniture company with larger facilities in Leavenworth and Kansas City. Like many industrial buildings of this vintage, the Helmers building has a very plain, utilitarian design with load-bearing brick walls and heavy timber framing. Features that reflect evolving industrial building technology include steel lintels that provide the structural capacity for grouped windows and modern mechanical systems - most notably light, heat, and fire safety - that improved working conditions and building safety. The company operated out of this building until 1940. The property was nominated as a good example of an early 20th century manufacturing facility constructed at the juncture of traditional and modern building technologies.

25761 151st Street
Leavenworth (Leavenworth County)
Listed in National Register Oct 6, 2011

Architect: unknown
Area of Significance: agricultural outbuilding; storage
Architectural Style(s): Other
Thematic Nomination: Historic Agriculture Related Resources of Kansas

Horace Greeley Lamborn purchased a 108-acre farm in Delaware Township in 1877. Although he seems to have purchased an established farmstead, it does not appear that any buildings remain from that period. The farmstead we see today is largely a result of continued development in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Within this historic core is a cluster of buildings including a 1955 residence, two barns, granary/feed shed, cow shed, two chicken houses, garage, and an outhouse. This working farmstead's setting and relationship of historic features has remained highly intact even as it has evolved to meet changing agricultural needs and technologies. Agricultural censuses from the late 1800s portray a typical subsistence farm. Diversification on the farmstead was key to its long-term success. Family recollections suggest Lamborn boarded horses for area residents and that he drove cattle to pasture on the nearby state prison island, transporting them across the Missouri River in flat boats. And, beginning in the early 1900s, the family developed a small dairy production. The property remains in the Lamborn family, and the north barn is currently undergoing extensive rehabilitation. The property was nominated for its local significance in the area of agriculture.
