Architect: Lorentz Schmidt

In the early 1920s, Charles M. Jackman hired well-known Wichita architect Lorentz Schmidt and contractor George Siedhoff to design and build his College Hill residence. Located east of downtown, the College Hill area was developing into a neighborhood that was home to prominent area businessmen and their families. The College Hill area featured homes of popular early twentieth century architectural styles, which by 1924 included Jackman's Spanish Colonial Revival house. The house is nominated for its architecture.
