Hi, Stephanie. I checked the Reverend Tieck’s book for anything on McKelvey or the Villa Rosa Bonheur and I did not see anything. The book was published in 1968 so the building would not have seemed as historically relevant as it might today. Another member posted that the building was designed by Robert Garner, who designed the Charlotte Bronte apartments. So, I guess Garner designed it for McKelvey, is that right?
Getting back to the Reverend Tieck’s book, I would highly recommend it despite its climbing price. It really is the definitive guide to local history with many amazing photographs.
