4101 Lyndale Ave S, Minneapolis, MN, USA
4101 Lyndale Ave S Home History Kirby T. Snyder, 1915 Although not quite up to the standards of Frank Lloyd Wright or Purcell and Elmslie, this house presents many familiar Prairie elements: bands of casement windows with geometric decorative patterns, overhanging eaves, a low-slung roof, and blocky, asymmetrical massing. Inside, however, the house develops a split personality on the first floor, portions of which feature a variety of deluxe details that are closer in spirit to Beaux-Arts Classicism than the Prairie Style. Snyder, who mainly designed schools and churches during his career, later moved on to California. This is his only known work in Minneapolis. Citation: Millett, Larry.
