HISTORIC HOME(S)

Colonel H.C. and Susan Cross House

Emporia, KS | Lyon County

You almost can't tear your eyes away from this magnificent late-Victorian era Queen Anne style home constructed in 1894. The detailing and decorative elements on the doors and windows are mesmerizing. Built for prominent banker and railroad executive H.C. Cross and his family, Cross died just a few months after the home was completed. Today it is a private residence. Drive by only. (NRHP)
