Professor working to preserve Osawatomie hospital building
By Sandra Moran
Kansan staff writer
A KU professor who spends his free time saving historic structures is working to save part of a building in Osawatomie.
Dennis Domer, associate dean of architecture and urban design, is working with area residents to save money on housing costs of the Osawatomie State Hospital.
South Main is a 45,000 square foot, two story building designed and built by
Haskell was a Kansas architect who designed several local buildings including the Douglas County Courthouse and Bailey Hall and the original Fraser Hall on the Lawrence campus.
'Old things can easily be remembered in pictures, books and the public library. All things are not worth preserving.'
The South Main Building at the Osawatomi State Hospital was closed in 1986 because hospital officials determined it was outdated.
— Charles Freeman member of Osawatomie hospital advisory board
Domer and supporters who want to save the building argue that it is a historic site that should be preserved. They say it is structurally sound and could be restored for less than the cost of a new building.
Those who want the building torn down argue that it is an eyewonder and that it is dangerous to patients at the hospital because they are allowed to walk around the campus and could enter it.
Charles Freeman, a member of the Osawatomi hospital advisory board, said the building should have been torn down Oct. 31, 1986, to make room for a new administration building, but the Kansas Legislature did not provide money for the demolition. Instead, the new administration building was built nearby. The Main building stands vacant.
Hospital representatives declined comment.
Freeman said that preserving the building was like preserving the dead and that it was a waste of tax money.
"Old things can easily be remembered in pictures, books and the public library," he said. "All things are not worth preserving."
In addition to his involvement with the Main building, Domer has
worked to save the Chicken Creek bridge, east of Lone Stake Lake.
John Lee, Lawrence architect, said he went to South Main with several other architects and found no struc- ture damage except minimal water damage.
"It is a normal extension of my work," he said. "You have to act, not just talk.
"There's a mentality that when things get old, you just throw them away and build something new," Lee said.
Eric Kilgren, staff psychologist at the hospital, said that he favored saving the building but that hospital administrators thought it was irreparable.
"My understanding is that they consider it, in its present state, a hazard to patients," he said. "It does not behave a forward state hospital to have such an antiquated building on it's grounds."
