National Register of Historic Places - Ira C. Van Noy and Charles S. Van Noy residences

Statement of Significance: The Ira C. Van Noy and Charles S. Van Noy residences are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places according to criterion C and are significant in the following areas: Architecture: Designed in 1909 by Kansas City architect Clifton Breeden Sloan, the Van Noy residences remain some of the most unique residential architecture to be found within Kansas City. Originally built outside the city limits, in close proximity to Swope Park as an expansive country estate, the residences, to date, remain the sole development on the seventeen-acre site. Although their exterior design is representative of a more sophisticated use of indigenous stone, the most significant aspect of the Van Noy residences is their sophisticated and well-crafted interiors. The structures are lavished with exceptional interior ornamentation in the form of stained and leaded glass and elaborate woodwork (6700 Elmwood); and stained and leaded glass, painted curved wall murals, classical carved woodwork and a glass domed atrium (6800 Elmwood).
