Burckhardt House is the residence of Bavarian-born furrier Adam Edward Burkhardt in the Avondale neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. The mansion was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in March 1980. Burckhardt constructed a small factory and store at Fourth and Elm Streets in 1891. 4 It was later destroyed by fire, but it was soon reopened on Race Street. The financial panic of 1893 caused financial distress. By 1895, Burckhardt was bankrupt. After borrowing $825 from two former employees, he started another raw fur business at Second and Main streets, which relocated to Third and Main streets in 1905. Burckhardt was also elected president of the Cincinnati Zoo at a time when the organization was contemplating bankruptcy and remained in that position for 14 years. Edgewood was listed for sale in 1902, but after no buyer came through, it was sold at a sheriff’s sale for half of its value to Joseph Joseph. 5 7 Joseph died in 1904 but the home remained with his wife until 1919 when their son Arthur Joseph took ownership. Arthur and his wife Florence lived in the residence until 1936 when it was acquired by Robert H. Gibson.
