401 NW 14th

Charles "C.B." & Elizabeth Ames

1901-1948

In 1901 Charles "C.B." and Elizabeth Ames built a two-story frame home on this lot. In May 1910, having outgrown the home, they moved it to 305 NW 14th and hired Layton, Wemyss-Smith, and Hawk of Skirvin Hotel and Central High School fame to design a new home. Ten years later, Solomon Layton used the same floor plan and architectural style for the Governor’s Mansion.
