The Brandeis-Millard House is located at 500 South 38th Street in the Country Club Historic District of Midtown Omaha, Nebraska. Its carriage house is located at 3815 Dewey Avenue in the same area. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, it was designated an Omaha Landmark on June 10, 1986.
An early example of the Jacobethan style of architecture, the house is the only known work of Albert Kahn in the state. It was originally built Arthur and Zerlina Brandeis of the notable Omaha mercantile family. The house was purchased in 1909 by Jessie H. Millard as a residence for herself and her father, Senator Joseph H. Millard, who was a pioneer Omahan that served as president of the Omaha National Bank, mayor of Omaha in 1871, and as a U.S. senator from 1901 to 1907.[2] The family occupied the residence until 1922.[3]
