Folk Art House

610 & 620 S. 10th Street, St. Joseph, MO

The Lottie Siegel and the Bohot at 610 and 620 S. 10th St. are amongst St. Joseph’s  oldest existing architecture and are situated in the historic Patee Town neighborhood in the shadows cast by the spires of the Queen of the Apostles church and across the street from the Ruby Theater, formerly Temple Bnai Sholem.   The most significant, but probably forgotten, aspect about 610 is that it was used as a settlement house for relocated Eastern European Jews from 1917 until 1965.  It achieved modern significance after 1965 when then-owner Bobby G. Bohot, a mason, applied folk art details to the front façade. Notably, it was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey (“HABS”) in 1986 and called “Architect’s Folly.”  Its listing on the National Register of Historic Places is pending. The Alois Herbert House (the Bohot) at 620 was originally built as a double house: an income producing property, and it remained as such throughout most of its history. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 29, 2007. Both houses are Greek Revival masonry structures with folk art masonry appliqués.

2912 Frederick Avenue, St. Joseph, MO

Standing somewhat aloof from the hustle and bustle that is Frederick Avenue today, is the Miller-Porter-Lacy home. It began as a relatively modest Italianate farmhouse built in 1883/84 and with two additional programs of building it became the gracious imposing home that it is today. The house’s current appearance is due largely to the work done by E.J. Eckel at the behest of Graham Lacy and his wife Ellen Tootle Lacy. The Lacys raised their large family here and often shared the house with a significant contingent of servants. There are not many houses in St. Joseph that retain such a clear feel of “days gone by” but this one certainly does! This property has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
