Louis Smith Tainter House
Louis Smith Tainter House, Romanesque Revival residence in Menomonie, United States
The Louis Smith Tainter House features locally quarried sandstone construction with robust forms, decorative stonework, and architectural elements characteristic of the late 19th century period.
Built in 1889 by architect Harvey Ellis, the house was commissioned by Andrew Tainter as a wedding gift for his son Louis Smith Tainter, marking a period of prosperity.
The property transformed from a private residence to a women's dormitory named Eichelberger Hall, and later became offices for the Stout University Foundation.
Located at 320 South Broadway Street in Menomonie, the house received National Register of Historic Places designation on July 18, 1974 with reference number 74000082.
The building demonstrates the architectural preferences of Wisconsin's lumber barons through its sophisticated design and high-quality local materials.
