George H. Kelly House

The George H. Kelly House is a neoclassical residence located at 1924 Binney Street in Omaha's Near North Side. It displays symmetrical proportions with classical columns, ornate cornices, and a prominent central entrance characteristic of the style.

Built in 1904 for a manufacturing company president, this house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. The date of its construction places it within the period when neoclassical design was favored by Omaha's prominent business figures.

The home was built during a period when Omaha's wealthy business owners favored classical design for their residences. This preference shaped how the neighborhood developed and what people expected from prestigious addresses at that time.

The house is located in the Kountze Place district and has been maintained to preserve its original architectural features. Visitors can view the exterior and walk through the surrounding residential neighborhood to appreciate the period homes in the area.

The residence is one of several hundred historically designated properties in Omaha that preserve the city's architectural heritage from the early 1900s. It exemplifies the neoclassical style that became widespread in Midwestern residential neighborhoods during that era.
