The Park Manor Historic District in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri, is locally significant under National Register Criterion C for the area of ARCHITECTURE. The District is an excellent illustration of the multi-family apartment building property type constructed for Kansas City's upper-middle classes during the mid-1 920s. It also illustrates the adaptation of the Spanish Colonial Revival architectural style to multi-family residential buildings. Park Manor developer Charles Ogan Jones commissioned the architectural firm of Boillot and Lauck to design a cohesive complex of unique buildings that reflected the architectural precedents established earlier in the decade by the nearby Country Club Plaza shopping district. The buildings in the District represent substantially intact, highly articulated expressions of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture as popularized by the Country Club Plaza. The period of significance for the District is 1925 to 1927, which encompasses the dates of construction of the buildings within the District. - NRHP, 15 July 2005
