(KNZA)--The William R. Guild house in Hiawatha is now on the Register of Historic Kansas Places and could soon be part of the National Register of Historic Places.
The Kansas Historic Sites Board of Review last month approved the house located at 610 Miami Street for listing in the state historic register.
The board also recommended that the State Historic Preservation Office forward the house's nomination to the office of the Keeper of the National Register in Washington D.C. for evaluation by their staff.
If they concur with the findings of the Kansas Historic Sites Board of Review, the property will be included in the National Register of Historic Places within 45 days of receipt.
The Guild house, which was constructed in 1915, is a two-story Italian Renaissance style residence.
William R. Guild was a former Hiawatha banker.
The house is currently owned by Russell and Kimberly Brien.
The Kansas State Historical Society says listing in the registers qualifies the property for certain financial incentives, including grant and tax credit programs. In addition, the Historical Society said the listing provides recognition of the historic importance of the property and assures protective review of projects that might adversely affect the character of the historic property.
