This is the original farmhouse on the property on 6th Avenue in Topeka that became the Menninger East Campus. This farmhouse burned, but the farmhouse of Mr and Mrs. W. C. Christenson was built on the original foundation. In May, 1925, The Menninger Sanitarium Corporation purchased the 20 acre farm and the farmhouse became the clinic and the surrounding 20 acres were developed with buildings and gardens to become the "East Campus" of the Menninger Foundation. In 1982, the "West Campus", a much larger area was developed. In 2003, the Menninger Foundation was moved to Houston, Texas.
