Summary
Located in Grand Island, the Lee Huff Apartment Complex is an excellent example of a multiple-dwelling complex that incorporates both an apartment building (constructed in 1928) and two flats (constructed in 1920-21). Apartment buildings and flats were popular forms of multi-family housing during the early twentieth century. These apartments/flats were ubiquitous property types in large urban centers such as Omaha (pop. 191,600 - 1920 and 214,000 - 1930), but rare for a community the size of Grand Island (pop. 14,000 - 1920 and 18,000 - 1930) in the 1920s.
