K. W. Smith House
The K.W. Smith House was designed for the insurance man K.W. Smith in 1887 by Louisville, Kentucky architect Mason Maury in the style of Richardsonian Romanesque. The house was built on Third and St. Catherine and is one of the earliest documented designs by Maury. In the 1920s, the house was bought and extensively remodeled by Luckett & Farley for the Archdiocese of Louisville, in which it served as the home of Archbishop John A. Floersh and headquarters of the Archdiocese until the mid 1960s. The house is included within the Old Louisville District of the National Register of Historic Places.[1][2][3]
