Scarritt Spring


Continuously occupied since 1897 by the Scarritt/Royster family, this is one of our many mansions over here in Northeast that are lovingly cared for by their owners. This house was built by Edward Scarritt for his family. He is the same man who built the Scarritt Building and Arcade in downtown KC>

Melrose Methodist






Located at the intersection of Bales and Windsor, Melrose United Methodist Church has been serving the Northeast neighborhood for more than 120 years. The deep brown western portion of the complex, left in exterior view, was finished in the 1880s... the "newer" worship space on the east side, right side, was completed in 1928. The church was founded by Nathan Scarritt whose land included much of what is now Kessler Park and ran east to Elmwood Avenue.
