MissouriContext
This commercial structure was built in 1897. One of the building permits was in the name of Charles and Thomas Burnett, who had a loan office at 304-306 Edmond and lived above it. The cost given on this permit was $1,850. The permit for 302 Edmond was in the name of G. W. Morris for $700. Louis Winter had a saloon here in 1899.
This commercial block retains its Beaux Arts Classicism-inspired cornice molding and its original second-story window treatment.
Owners: G. W. Morris; Charles and Thomas Burnett
