Humphrey-McMeekin House
Humphrey-McMeekin House is a top example of Colonial Revival architecture in Louisville, Kentucky. It was built in 1914–1915 as the private home of Lewis Craig Humphrey, a newspaper editor, and his wife Eleanor Silliman Belknap Humphrey, who were both Louisville natives. The house sits at 2240 Douglass Boulevard in the Highlands neighborhood and was co-designed by architects George Gray and Herman Wishmeyer and built by Alfred Struck & Company to suit the owners’ lifestyle.
The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983 for its architectural significance. In 1973 the next owners, Sam H. and Isabel McMeekin, bought the house; Sam McMeekin served as a sports editor for the Courier-Journal and later held roles as a placing judge and racing steward at Churchill Downs, and as city safety director. By 1986, the owners listed on the NRHP nomination were Mr. and Mrs. Don Ingwerson.
